1.  Bruce Studley's family has asked me to send out the following info:

"The Studley family will host family and friends at their home at 12 Willow Pond Road, Fernandina Beach, FL, on the Amelia Island Plantation from 12-2pm on Thursday, March 3rd.  All of Bruce's cycling friends are invited to drop by.  Donna Lynn has requested no flowers or food, please, but she invites you to make contributions in Bruce's name to a YMCA of your choice or to Friends of the Amelia Island Trail ( www.ameliaislandtrail.org )." 

2.  Our Amelia Island Cycling plan is to adjust our regular Thursday ride to incorporate a stop by our riders at the Studley home.  Here's the proposed plan and it will be sent out as a formal change to the scheduled ride:

Ride start will be 10:30am on Thursday from Main Beach rather than 9am.  We will do our normal North Beach and Ft Clinch route first, then head south via A1A to Burney Park for a short regrouping rest stop.  From there we will ride in a tight group directly into the Amelia Island Plantation and Bruce's home.  We will stop in for 15-20 minutes to visit with family and pay our respects.  On departure we will stay in a tight group and ride an additional 3-4 miles on the plantation then return to Main Beach at a pace of your choice for a total ride distance of approximately 30 miles.  Riders may do additional mileage if desired; just pre-coordinate with the ride leaders.
