backwards Cinderella?
I remember my old bike club would get together with just the Guys and do the Cinderella Century Backwards...Great way to girlwatch, if anyone is up for it I'll post it when it comes up.

That'd be fun but I've already signed up for the Party Pardee ride.

I missed the Pardee and this sounds like a great idea. Let's do it.

65 miles and it starts (and ends) in Pleasanton. That's all I know. http://www.valleyspokesmen.org/cinderella_classic.php

Curtis, This is what we do..Your old lady has to be the "Mole" When she gets the route map she calls you on the cell...we'll be up the street behind some trees/we go over the route and follow the markings on the road. It's either that or we throw a wig on you and send you in behind the estrogen lines ;) If you see any chicks you just wink and say in a high voice " hi amiga love your lip gloss" ! I'll be wearing my Pink Tmoblile shirt! they won't have a clue I'm a guy! They'll think I'm a German girl!
How's that??:)

From what I've heard from experienced women riders about the behavior of some of the riders on the Cinderella, riding on the other side of the road is probably the safest route to take.

Maybe that's why many of the female riders I know and ride with don't do Cinderella.

My SO and I happened to ride on the Iron Horse trail in the other direction that day on the tandem. Several of the Cinderellas seemed to think they are actual princesses and the path belongs to them, taking the whole path, talking and looking anywhere but ahead, paying no attention to other path users. VERY ANNOYING! :mad:

My SO was actually even more annoyed with them than me.
