Foo - Overthere & Cycle17 Weekend Rides

So on my most recent rip to CA to visit my lovely girlfriend we took to the roads again...

Saturday morning headed toward Winters then up Cantelow.

Before the climb starts, lots of beautiful scenery right after we had a little impromptu sprint:p

Atop Cantelow taking a quick break...the trash can was full of GU GEL and Cliff Bar wrappers! Obviously a popular spot for cyclists.

Overthere comes ripping down the back side of Cantelow, she'd get a new set of brakes latter that day.:D

Sunday, I got a chance to ride with the Davis Bike Club Women's Race Team. A shot from the back as we rolled into Winters. The ladies kept a double paceline at about 18-20mph for 17 miles.

Overthere and I at Steady Eddie's cyclist cafe in Winters. We took a break to warm up and refuel before heading home for the day.

I really love cycling in this area of California. Can't wait to move there in at the end of next year! Another great weekend on the bike, and my riding partner is pretty great as well!:thumb:

beautiful....both the scenery and the couple :)....you two look so happy :thumb:

Oh cool pics youguys!! You aer moving to Cali?? Oh fantastic!!

Glad to see a nother BF couple. YAY!

Doesn't he have the greatest smile in that last pic? :love: It was a great weekend. About 90 miles of mostly great weather, and I got to share my favorite stretch of road with him! Oh, and the All-you-can-eat sushi is 'our' thing too! lol.

Siu, after he moves here, we'll get a big Norcal ride welcome ride going! :)

Awesome!!

It must be looooooooooove if he's movin' over this way.

:) Looks like a fun weekend.

aren't you two just the cutest ever!! :love:

aren't you two just the cutest ever!! :love:

Oh yes, we excel in cuteness! :lol::lol:

So when is the wedding? Can the NorCal people come? I hope you arrange for bike parking outside of the ceremony. If you are Japanese I can help you cheat and fold the cranes. I can also help wax your bikes.

East Hill makes a mean shortbread so I bet she can make some boomin' cake!!

X can help decorate the bikes with all the fun stuff and Bikingshearer can officiate since he is all official and stuff.

Crassic can be in charge of photography.

We can get Hickeydog up this way and he can be the ringbearer. AEO can be the flowergirl. or boy. Whatever mood he's in for the day.

Chip can be in charge of decorating the hall, I bet he can put on a show. Goobers would be good to sing for your reception.

Scott Morrison and Michele can probably get Richard Simmons to do the choreography for your first dance and BigBossman and Taxi can map out the route you guys take in your ride out.

We can send you to Costa Rica for your honeymoon and you can stay with Crtreedude or Joe and Shadiyah.

LowCel can be in charge of your gifts since he's so frikken organized. Brian will supply his nuts for your party favors while Arti and her creative self will get the guys (workbiker, 65er) to put them together since they put things together all day anyhow.

Shadiyah can probably make a huge vat of koumbacha (or however you spell it) in lieu of wedding punch.

Jsharr will cook fish for the main dish at the dinner.



Pheard can help you sew your dress. As long as it's pink.

Damn, I'm good. Got a wedding together in all of five minutes. No excuses now.

If anyone else wants to help, they can post in here. We are gonna make this one hell of a celebration!!

East Hill makes a mean shortbread so I bet she can make some boomin' cake!!



I could make a shortbread cake :D .

If I'm given enough notice, I could also 'visit' me mum and do my baking in San Jose :) .

East Hill

Sounds like a great weekend! I've really enjoyed my rides up Cantelow, especially now that I can ride up from the West side. Looking forward to the "Welcome" ride when he gets up here.

Oh man, I can't/haven't tried up the West side yet. I get vertigo thinking about it...but that IS my goal for 2009! Hey, 52 pounds down! Congrats, Joel!!

(...I'm ignoring Siu and her wedding plans :twitchy:)

So, does this mean I'm not invited to cycle and overthere's wedding? :(

Well, it's up to them but to be honest, with your emo self we don't want any dampers put on this wedding.

So what do you say we have UA as the best man?

I can say, with all honesty, I am not best at anything.

You HAVE to come UA, you're on the top of my Foo Crush list after all!

...oh, er.., I am SO not playing Siu's wedding game plans, though...gahhh...

Ummm.. Does Cycle know this?? :twitchy:

thinking cycle 17, no...i mean honeybuns, is smiling about this thread :):)








i luv's making wedding gifts :innocent:

Thanks! The weight continues to come off. Only a few more pounds to my self-imposed goal.

There is one tough spot on the west side, but after riding with you, IMO you're certainly strong enough to make it up. I did a double Winters Loop a few weeks back. Once up the west side, lunch at Steady Eddy's, then back and up the East side. Good ride. Might have to arrange it for the NorCal group.

So when is the wedding? Can the NorCal people come? I hope you arrange for bike parking outside of the ceremony. If you are Japanese I can help you cheat and fold the cranes. I can also help wax your bikes.

Ack!!! For that, you have to be in charge of the wedding cake!! wait...what? :eek:

Ummm.. Does Cycle know this?? :twitchy:

:twitchy: :twitchy: :twitchy: :twitchy: :twitchy:...not yet...:twitchy: :twitchy::twitchy:

X can help decorate the bikes with all the fun stuffWait, how and why did I get stuck with interior decoration duties?

Sarcasm isn't going to spew itself, you know.

No, X. You are decorating the bikes they are taking off in. Chip is decorating the hall. But I'm sure he needs help so yeah. You are decorating the hall too.

I just thought of something. Kaotikgrl can help with the cranes, she's probably better at it than I am. East Hill is doing the wedding cake.

Oh and Kaotikgrl can help Crassic with photography too. She can see things at weddings that regular cameras cannot capture.

Who do you want for your wedding party?? :)

One of these days I'm going to make it out to Cali to do some riding. Great pictures.

I can provide violin and/or piano music for the event. :thumb:

No, X. You are decorating the bikes they are taking off in. Chip is decorating the hall. But I'm sure he needs help so yeah. You are decorating the hall too.I'm just wondering where the idea that I'd be any good at decorating anything came from.

Because of your badass bikes and your house. You have good taste in colors and what goes with what. And Stevesurf can help. We gotta get him in here too.

Cranky. Cranky can help usher the guests. MV can help usher the guests too. But he has to do the men because the women, well...we don't want him flirting with all the women guests before they even get a chance to sit down.

OH wait!! 65er can help Jsharr with the dinner!! We can have curry fish or something!!

All this sound good so far, Overthere?









Hello?


Overthere?

Keep planning it, Siu, she's bound to start thinking it's a good idea soon... ;)

I think I just jacked her thread.

Maybe I'll shut up now.

Sorry, Overthere. :o

all I can say is

:love:Love is in the air.....:love:

you alwasys say that! but sometimes it can be true. :)

Ummm.... What I know is that after school next year I'm moving to the Davis/Sacramento area permanently to be with Overthere. :thumb::love:I love and adore her. 'Nuff said.;)

As for the wedding stuff...you are all gettting WAAAAAY ahead of yourselves!:eek::p But thanks for taking an interest in our thread and pics.:lol:

Seriously though...the riding has been great every time I've been out there. And as for Cantelow, I was thinking as I descended down the West side that I'd love to ride up it. Would it be hard...yeah, but I wouldn't let it kick my *ss.
