> THE PLAN: We'll be doing a few more miles this week in preparation for the upcoming "Ride to Remember". The route will take us out Millhopper Rd., west on 78th to 337. We'll go through High Springs, hit Chestnut hill and head for home via Millhopper again. This will be about 30 minutes longer than our standard ride, so bring enough fluids/food. The forcast predicts that the temperature won't hit the 80's before we arrive home. I mapped the route on "Map My Ride":
