Since, this looks like it is an open Saturday for all of us in the Hawkins Project (next weekend is Andrea's and then Gary Brown the week following), Rob suggested that this could be the day we do Meyersdale to Frostburg on the Rail/Trail.
I don't know who all I mentioned this to. I think Rob and maybe Jeremy. Anyway, we would meet at the Depot and then Jackie is willing to give us a ride up to Meyersdale and from there it is 17 down to Frostburg.
Let me know what you guys think and if you want to do this. It would be great if we could do this maybe three times before the big races!!!

A little info for the group headed out on 8/11. I rode from Frostburg to Meyersdale this morning on the bike. It's 16.56 miles from the parking lot at the bottom of the Depot to the train station in Meyersdale. Slight uphill until just past the big tunnel then a slight downhill until you hit Meyersdale. On the way back it's a very slight uphill (not like heading out of the Depot) until the tunnel then a fast finish for you guys into Frostburg. Very nice section of trail. I must forewarn Rob, I saw a snake(non-venemous) just before Deal on the way out, so send Jeremy or Jaron out front for reptile patrol. Hope you guys have a good one and hopefully I'll be back with you guys soon.

Nice report, Dennis. Jordan told me that you headed out that way. I've never been on that section of the trail and I'd really like to see what it is like.
I think it is supposed to be warm on Saturday, so if you wanted to meet at 7, we could be at Meyersdale at 7:30 or so. If you want to go earlier, let me know - I can do that too. And Rob, you need to drag Mertz along with you.
