|   NSA-OCE Century--too late to RSVP? | hms
Sep 27, 2001 7:59 AM | | Is it too late to RSVP for the NSA-OCE Century? If not, I would like to participate. Also, how do I get to the starting point? I will be coming from Baltimore via I-95 and I-495? |
| Everyone welcome. Hope to see you there. | MB1

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2001
NSA-OCE FIXTE CENTURY, starting from Nokesville Community Park. Meeting time is 7:15am for a 7:30 departure. Here's the ride description: 50/70/100 * VA * 7:30 AM * Nokesville Community Park (NCP)
NSA-OCE Fixte Century (With Snow Cone Option). Fairly to very flat, the last 20 miles are rolling. There are 50-, 70-, & 100-mile options. We'll be riding our track bikes, hence "NSA" = "no shifting available", and "OCE" =
"or coasting either"; but everyone and every type of bike is welcome, especially if one participates in the spirit of the ride and holds shifting and coasting to a minimum. Bonus points for single speeds. Snow Cones at the
park after the ride. (No seconds on snow cones for gear heads!) RSVP for Snow Cones. Ride leaders intend to ride a "B" pace for the full century.

Sep 27, 2001 9:33 AM | | Miss M is Mercedes, I am pretty sure she would not like to be called Miss M by a stranger. And she knows I am pretty strange. ;-) |

| I cross-posted this on MTBR Singlespeed ... | Humma Hah
Sep 27, 2001 5:16 PM | | ... I posted about the ride a few weeks ago, but figured they needed a reminder.
There are at least 3 singlespeeders on that forum in the area, but I've not heard if any will be there. |
| Looking forward to meeting you ... | Humma Hah
Sep 27, 2001 4:44 PM | | ... I expect to be there. I need the ride -- I've barely done any in the last few weeks. |
