A bunch of people ride bikes...but even if that isn't your thing, please join us....everybody can join in and eat pancakes with us at 10am. Ken and Paige.
the following is from ERIC MARTIN....
The Cades Cove ride is this coming Saturday the 11th. We will be meeting in the parking lot in front of the entrance to the cove between 7 and 7:30. The loop is open from 7 a.m. to bikers only until 10 a.m. After that the loop is open to motorized vehicles. We will be serving breakfast around 10:00 after the bike ride. The loop is 12 miles long and takes 2hrs on average to bike. There is a short cut for those who want to shorten the ride. If you do not have a bike, there is a place to rent bikes. I am providing a link to a website with that information. I think helmets can be rented also. Bring appropriate clothing for the ride (it will be a little cooler in the mountains). Also take water and a light snack for the ride if you like.
NOTE THE CHANGE....Breakfast at Cades Cove will be at campsites C36 (loop C) in the camping area instead of the picnic area.
Park and walk from the store (at the Ranger Station) or ride your bike to campsite C36
We will need a few people to help with set up and cooking at the picnic area. If you are willing to help, please let myself (Eric) or Gary Douglas know. Everyone will need to bring a camp chair for breakfast.
If you plan on going please let me (ERIC) know so we can have an approximate head count (including children).
You can contact ERIC at emartin7614@comcast.net . Gary’s email is service.solutions@charter.net

We look forward to seeing everyone there. It was a great time last year and is always a wonderful opportunity to see God’s creation.
