I was thinking for friday a quick trip down to poopy's and back. Maybe down blackjack road, and back up scenic ridge/scales mound road? But the river ride south may be a good idea too as long as there are some cool stops along the way. At the same time, I worry that people who are riding 5,6,7 or more hours to get there may not want to hop right back on their bikes for a couple hours. They may just want to hang out on the deck and bull$hit. Which is cool too.
