> Description: Join Hugh, Steve, Jack, Bob and Eric on another joint
> ride with Northern Neck Cycling, (the bike club on Virginia's Northern

> Windmill Point Resort and then travels around Fleets Bay into downtown
> Kilmarnock. All pace groups will meet up in Kilmarnock for lunch on

> joins the Rappahannock River. From Weems, the route travels back to
> Irvington with a stop along the way to visit the beautiful grounds and
> buildings of Christ Church. Christ Church was completed in 1735 and
> is considered to be the best preserved and most finely crafted of
> colonial Virginia's Anglican parish churches (www.christchurch17
> 35.org <http://35.org/>). There is a $5 "contribution" for the Christ
> Church tour. Upon return to Irvington, Steve Reiss, our host from
> Northern Neck Cycling, has invited all riders back to his house for a
> very informal libation and snack gathering. Steve's address is 729
> Chesapeake Drive in Irvington, which is the street on the other side
> of Commons area from the Steamboat Museum. Follow Chesapeake Drive to
> the end of the street. Cars can park in the cul-de-sac. Bicycles
> should come down the driveway to the house. If you are planning on
> joining us on this ride, please email or call Hugh no later than noon
> on Thursday, August 28 so that he can give an accurate head count to
> the restaurant, Christ Church and Steve.

> Directions: Irvington is about 1 hour and 15 minutes from the
> Richmond Airport so make sure you get an early start, especially if
> you are coming from the West End or the Southside. To reach
> Irvington, take Interstate 64 East to exit 220 for Route 33 East to
> West Point. Continue 17 miles past West Point to a stoplight at the
> crest of a hill in Glenns and turn left onto Route 33/US 17 North.
> Stay on Route 33/US 17 North for 2 miles and bear right at the Hardees
> into Saluda. At the traffic light at the courthouse in Saluda, turn
> right onto Route 33 and proceed 6.8 miles to the stoplight at the
> Route 3 intersection. Turn left onto Route 3 West and continue for 7.4
> miles over the Rappahannock River (on the Norris Bridge) into White
> Stone. Turn left at the first traffic signal in White Stone onto
> Route 200 North and drive 2 miles
