NHCC rides for August 25 to August 30

The days are getting shorter like crazy now that September is approaching! Sunset is occurring approximately 1 or 2 minutes earlier each day and by Sunday the sun will set at 7:52pm, meaning that lights will be required on bicycles as of 7:22pm. By the way, you can check the sunrise and sunset time each day by using the handy link in the right hand column of the website.
