While the summer solstice was over a week ago on the 21st, the latest sunset for Egan this year is tomorrow as determined by the geometric effect and the Equation of Time. We will celebrate by heading south to Saratoga and enjoy 11 summery segments. This week we will also have a women’s ride leading just after the B group.
