Hey Tony - Was not an "organized" ride, but rather I and a few friends used one of the cue-sheets posted on the Frederick pedalers website, and I see dozens of cue sheets linked on their site, of varying lengths, several of which involve covered bridges. This particular ride is really just lightly rolling terrain around emmitsburg. I do believe that the Frederic Pedalers announce group rides on a regular basis, but I have not yet participated.
A couple of weeks ago, I rode to Gettysburg from the Utica Park parking lot using another of the cue sheets, and it was pretty sublime just quietly rolling into the town - the cue sheet took us past many of the places included on guided tours - as opposed to on a tour bus. All of the roads are paved, and when we encountered detours due to work at bridge crossings these have been easy to improvise with gps maps. We have yet to encounter a "bad" piece of road, and often the detours result in interesting nooks and crannies we would never have discovered. It's all lovely scenery. Again, not sure about elevations, but there were no monster climbs, and nothing that couldn't be managed by dropping into low gearing, sitting up, and taking it all in! Hope everyone is having a great weekend, Alan On Saturday, September 5, 2015 at 10:51:48 AM UTC-4, Tony DeFilippo wrote: > > Alan, is the covered bridges an organized ride?
