The Plan: /ridewithgps.com/routes/7507755
Ken ride to take advantage of the Jan warmth - well hi 30's Lincoln or Concord Start. Lunch planned at Nashoba Brook Bakery:
Ken, Barbara, Barry solo, Bob W, Clyde, Jack, Julie D, Rich, Richard Lawrence
Nice ride, many familiar roads in reverse - Westerly winds gusty, but manageable.
My phone was acting up on the way home so I stayed on Stow Road in Acton to gain a bit of time and fix it. Somehow it got into settings and was about to delete all cached data for all apps. I stopped that and then tried to backtrack on the route since I was ahead of the group - but I chose the wrong road to backtrack and the group got past me without me seeing them. So a lot of horsy-ducky going back and forth to be sure they were not waiting for me (as I had told Bob and Barry not to wait) I caught up at the bakery but had a CVS pickup to do - so I didn't stay for lunch, had a quick sub at New London, did a CCW, CVS pickup and rode home
