2/26 Ride - 50 Mile Panera to Panera Ride If Weather Cooperates

Tentative plan for the Sunday ride is take the same route as last week, via St. Mary's to Atkinson, with a stop in Lake Bluff. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and today's snow will have mostly melted by Sunday morning or at least the roads will be clear. The Tucson crew will probably find the concept that this ride includes some hill  training to be a bit mirthful after the slopes that they conquered last week, but at least the Three Sisters provides a moderate climbing opportunity and the last slope on Atkinson prior to Waukegan is deceptively challenging. Weather permitting, we'll meet at 8:00 am at Panera Bread in Wilmette.

    Based on the wind and temperature forecast, does it make sense to consider re-scheduling the ride for 2:30 in the afternoon? We should be home before dark, although it is sort of an odd time to start a ride.

    I am open to any time. In the morning it will be cold and the possibility of ice after the melt today will be pretty high. Later probably will be wet from the melting snow again.
