Special Events for the Coming Year
While the bulk of our Club meetings are centered around our weekly Sunday breakfasts and rides from George's in Deerfield, there are always a few special things that are done each riding season. We are very fortunate to have several experienced tour leaders in our membership. They consistently deliver itineraries and destinations that are once-in-a-lifetime riding experiences. In this section of our web site we call everyone's attention to the coming year.
