adventure, years ago, resulted in an arrest. If you really want to mess
things up, ride on Storrow. We have done that too.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The best way to plan a ride ahead of time is to do
it yourself and make a map. Pass the map out at the ride and lead with
confidence for as long as you can.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We haven't used a map in years. It doesn't
mean we won't. You will find over time that CM is organic and largely
independent of this list server. Everybody repeat the rules after me: "We
meet the last Friday of every month, 5:30 pm, at Copley Square". The rest
my friend is up for grabs.</FONT></DIV>

through the tunnel. The first time in while.</FONT></DIV>

one in their right mind would ride a bicycle on Memorial Drive.

daily."<BR><BR>Eh, biking on Memorial Drive isn't that big of a deal. I did
it once.. <BR>granted, I was using my highest gear and pretty much going
faster than I'd<BR>ever gone on my bike. May not have been the safest way to
get downtown for<BR>me, but it's a helluva lot faster than the root-riddled
