Details from Mike Savage, added later:
Attached are photos from today. We had a smaller group than usual, but everyone did a great job, and the cleanup was completed within our typical timeframe. The weather and temperature cooperated ... and we beat the summer heat! Our final 2025 event will be in the Fall.

On June 17, 11 club members cleaned up a 2 mile stretch of Cedar Creek Road in Milton in the DelDot Adopt a Highway project. Collected 11 bags of trash and made the roads look cleaner. Special thanks to Mike Savage for organizing this great event!
John Fiori, Lee Lerch, Tom Sheehan, Pat Miller, Randy Kubetin, and Jim Prettyman. It was a hot night but we survived and helped some bike riders coming through Rehoboth.
On June 17, Theresa and Bob Fritz, Chris Braudy, John Fiori, and Jim Prettyman providing assistance to a huge number of f J1 students, mainly from Kazakhstan and turkey, at Epworth Church - proving that regardless of where you come from Cycling brings with it a common language.
Denny Shook and Jim Prettyman represented Sussex Cyclists yesterday on the Coast Life show on WRDE. Their segment on Bicycle Safety was great, and they were both SUPERSTARS!
Thanks for all you do to help us promote Safe & Enjoyable Cycling in Lower Delaware!
32 members who rode this week's Wed ride! Great fun on each of the 3 groups: 14 mph, 15-16 mph & 18-18.5 mph.
We had a terrific “Bike Check” event in Rehoboth last evening. Rob and Cassie Burns, John Fiori, Chris Braudy and Jim Prettyman manned the table. Although it looks like we just sat around enjoying each other’s company we did provide equipment and information for well over twenty visitors. The weather was perfect also!
Volunteers Needed Bicycle Safety Checkpoints
All dates are now posted—sign up anytime!
Every year, Sussex Cyclists teams up with DelDOT and State Police to host bicycle safety checkpoints offering repairs, lights, helmets, and safety info to the public. Below is this year's schedule.
No special skills needed—just a willingness to help! Tasks may include handing out materials, making minor bike adjustments, and installing lights or reflective tape.
These events are also a great way for members to connect, socialize, and bring guests along to get involved. It's a fun, rewarding experience for all!

What a great day. 30 miles on the C&D Canal with 23 riders, beautiful weather and an awesome lunch at Shaffers Canal House. Doesn’t get much better than this.
