| Comments: ICC Tunnel. Been through the tunnel dozens of times in a car. Always wondered what was above. Found the neighborhood. It's on Olde Mill Run, which comes off Muncaster Mill right across from St. Francis Church. The road above the tunnel is the only way in to the neighborhood. There's nothing but green-space above the tunnel, so a bridge would have done. This way keeps the noise down and makes the highway a little less intrusive. I've never seen anything like it. Kind of creative. Must have been expensive, though. |

| Comments: Top of Wildcat and back. Pretty warm -- about 88F when I left. But there's a breeze and much of the route is shady. The countryside has really greened up. |

| Comments: Damascus ramble. Got rained out yesterday, so I about doubled up today. Usual way to the top of Wildcat, then left on Watkins. Loghouse, Newbury, and Sweepstakes took me to MD27 and into Damascus. Went left on Bethesda Church, and left on Purdum. Don't recall being on this section of Purdum before. It's very pretty, but also hilly, and it was pretty hot today -- high 80's. At Mountain View, a left, and down a big descent to a right on Kings Valley. Next, a left on Kingstead, right on Oak, and right on MD27. Took 27 down to a left at Kings Valley and then home the usual way. Extrapolated out to a century, this ride would have 8000 feet of climb -- more than the Civil War Century. |

n.b. Put Kool Stop brake shoes on the front of the hybrid a while back. They stop fine, but I could't found any way to get them to stop squealing. Jobst's trick of dragging the brakes through a puddle didn't work. There was plenty of life left on the Kool Stops but I replaced them with Shimano shoes. Mileage was 29110. The new shoes were quiet on a short test ride. On today's ride, they weren't squealing, but they didn't sound good. After a turn or two of the wheel, there's a grinding sound. |
