Subject: [CR]RE: Washington Area Pre-Cirque Ride - FRIDAY UPDATE!

The weather forecast for tomorrow now shows the rain delayed until late in the day, so the ride will go as planned (details below). If there are people who have conflicts, or would simply like to come for after-ride gathering, that's great too. We should be back at my house by about 1:00 PM. I have not heard from too many people at this point, but I'm hoping that we have a decent showing.

If there are any questions, you have a problem finding us, or need to contact us for any reason, please call me at 703-300-3269.

Thanks, and looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
