Hello Skunksters, Plans are slowly coming together for our ride this year. I will send an email next Monday outlining where we will be staying in each overnight community. I will also send you the location information and and times for loading bicycles on Friday night and on Sat. morning. Please bring a large piece of cardboard and a bike inner tube for loading purposes. This coming weekend, July 11, we will have a skunk ride leaving from Mike and Debbie Walsh's home in Ankeny at 1302 SE Cortina Drive. We will leave around 10:00 am for a 50ish mile bike ride. We'll stop for lunch along the way. Have a good rest of the week. I'll see you Sat. or sometime next week. Patti
