The Speedtrap Ride is a joint venture of the Toledo Area Bicyclists(TAB) and the Flatlanders Bicycle Club. It’s a great opportunity to ride some quiet country roads and to meet and to ride with some great people, too!
The long-range forecast for next Tuesday calls for a high of 78 degrees. A northwest wind of 10 – 20 mph is predicted, but there is a 40% chance of showers[That’s a 60% chance of no showers] . I hope to see you then!
