De_script_ion: Join us for the second annual ride from Kilmarnock to Reedville and back. The ride will start and end at Lancaster Middle School in “downtown” Kilmarnock. Highlights include a lunch stop at Fairport Marina (a really casual, dockside restaurant on Cockrell’s Creek), a riding tour through Reedville and a stop at Chitterchats in Reedville for ice cream. This is going to be a very social ride with a lot of stops. It will probably take all day.
Modern Reedville was founded in 1874 when Captain Elijah Reed transferred his menhaden fishing operation from Brooklin, Maine to the Chesapeake Bay. He purchased the land on Cockrell's Creek that is now Reedville. Today the small town of Reedville is one of the major US ports for the landing of commercial fish (menhaden), second only to Kodiak, Alaska. (Source:
www.rfmuseum.org/history.html)As always, tandems are welcome (Hugh and Laura plan to ride their tandem). For those looking for a shorter ride, there will be an alternate 26 mile route with a stop at Brown Store Market. The 26 mile route does not go to Reedville.
If you are planning to join us for lunch, you must pre-register at
http://reedvilleride.eventbrite.com/ so that we can give a head count to Fairport Marina. Cue sheets will be sent out in advance on the RABA and NNC email lists. Please print a cue sheet for your desired route and bring it with you. If you are not on the email lists, contact one of the ride leaders prior to the ride and request that they email you a cue sheet.
