Lights are mandatory on this friendly, social ride; you'll need a front white headlight and a red rear taillight. If you possess a reflective vest and/or clothing, wear them.

Adams Fall Orchard Ride
We will ride around Adams County to view any colorful fall leaves remaining in the apple and peach orchards.
