Looking for rides to get me out of the smoke in the valley. Anything fun in the Bay (road or mountain)?

nah I'm not that cool :( :(
I just want to ride and get out of this smoke. I'd go to Tahoe but don't feel comfortable riding the trails without friends. I'm thinking of doing some kind of road thing in the bay. You guys are doing nothing?!?!? :(

Really, we should ask for 'Get our BF Valley Friends out of the Smoke' rides! :D
I'm game for something on Sunday. Saturday is tied up. Nothing too long though. 40 to 50 is my limit.
I have the Livestrong Challenge (http://www.livestrongchallenge.org)on Sunday, there are also a few members headed off to the Death Ride (http://www.deathride.com):) I'm not sure what everybody else is up to. Surely something will stir up.. you can always jump in the Pen Velo pack ride.. that had a good response from those who went along.

Done! 'Cmon down! We can go down to Santa Cruz and back. It'll be an easy century. If you're not up for that long of a ride, we can turn around sooner.
That's what I was planning to do anyway, so come and join me.

Depending on my hip xray (tomorrow), Sunday, I'm doing the tiburon loop from the city. Mostly flat and Mexican food at Carlos Santana's favorite Tiburon Mex restaurant...Cheap $$$$ Perro Muy bueno!:love:

From where do you depart? I was thinking of doing a similar loop, and would ride the ferry in to SF and start from somewhere around there. I could meet you where you wanted to start..

I can't do either -- working on Saturday, riding in the Spring Hill Road Race on Sunday. I'm thinking of it as a group ride with friends whom I haven't made yet. :D

I'll be lugging mail, but the club has two rides. One is a Tri training ride starting at the Niles Staging Area of the Alameda Creek Trail. The other is a ride around the south end of the bay starting in the Long's drugs parking lot at Warm Springs and Mission,

NachOmc-What time could you get here. I could meet you at the Ferry building. Maybe 10am?
Alan-Maybe next week for HMB? I didn't get charged for my rental car last weekend for some reason? So I can probably make it down.
Red Rider-good luck, hope I see a Pict of you holding up a trophy!

Dang Pete. I would ride with you if it's Saturday (Not that I can keep up with you anyway. :cry:). Sunday I am tied up. :innocent:

Details? Speed? Distance? Time?
Thanks.
40-50 miles - FFBC "B" pace (16-20mph in a paceline). We we head down Milpitas from Warm Springs blvd and return the same way. Major climb is Sierra Rd (3 miles @ ~10-14% grade).
Roja, BF.net is giving errors with long posts so I shrunk my response. We start from Niles:

I just pm'd you, taxi. My wife works all night Saturdays and last night was not a good night. I didn't get any sleep and I'm exhausted. I'm not going to make the drive out there this morning - I'm barely getting through this.
/excuses
Hopefully next time.

I ended up doing Redwood Gulch, Saratoga Gap, across Skyline, down Page Mill. The sun was out, but the sky is still not blue ... more white-ish than anything else.
