Despite another gray Saturday morning and cool misty skies, a large group of Cyclopaths left the Salem start; including Arlene, Gail, Drew, Carl, new bride Lynda, Paul G., Jack, Donna, Sheldon, Queen Kathy and Drew (returning from her winter break). Surprising all on the other side of the bridge were Ducky and the O'Gradys, (John, Maureen, and Alana!), who met the group en route! (So fun to see them!) Chip and I drove to Boxford and, along with Cyclopath Pat, rode out and caught the group on the back end in Topsfield. Together we rode the last few miles to breakfast with the gang -- Chip riding as fast as his little legs could go! Duane was waiting for our arrival at the Boxford General Store which is always a busy place. Breakfast was delicious and the conversations were crazy, as always. Returning to our bikes after breakfast, Bruce, joined the gang for the ride back! Wahoo! (All totaled, 20 Cyclopaths made an appearance on Saturday.)
