Led the short ride for Mark Baskin's Honey Dew Donuts ride. The day started a bit on the dreary and drizzly side, but no one got wet and the weather gradually improved. The roads were mostly dry and pleasant. When we got to the designated rest stop, the 40 milers were there finishing their pit stop details. Just as they were leaving, a third riding group ("Free-as-in-Beer") arrived. In the resulting confusion the 30 mile group set off without checking all the stalls. Fortunately, our alert sweep (Thank you Harriet.) rounded up the abandoned riders and got us back in sync. Arriving at the point in the route labeled "Honey Dew" we understood how Mark could make his promise of free donuts without financial risk. Honey Dew is done and gone. So, unburdened by donuts in the belly, we continued on past scenic Heard Pond and the Sudbury river crossing. For the final stretch we departed from the planned route and took the newly paved Mass Central Rail Trail path from Wayland to Weston. No one seemed to mind missing the last few miles of extra hills and potential pot holes. The group split at the trail intersection with Concord Road with the majority heading straight for the cars while others rode to Weston Center in search of midday sustenance. Thank you Mark for designing a lovely route (There were many complements.) and to Harriet Fell for ably serving as sweep.
