Seems like a nice group. During the winter, they just meet on Saturdays at 9:00 and decide where to go (usually in a few groups). My group rode up into the hills and to the zoo and back. Pretty sweet ride and I found a cool guy that set a great pace. Most of the riders seemed to be pretty mellow and social.

My ride was about 30 miles with 3000 feet of climbing at about 14.5-15 mph average (after I added a few hill repeats at the end).

I met a couple of them just before I started up Ink Grade in Napa. They ride the Ink Grade loop annually but the opposite direction. Nice people.
