Hi All,

Maria asked me to post that we'll be riding a pre-Breathless training ride this Sunday, April 19th, starting at Angelus Oaks, riding to Onyx Summit (8,440 ft. elevation) and return to Angelus Oaks for lunch, and you are all welcome to join us!

Meet at Angelus Oaks at 8:45 approx. for 9:00 AM departure.

So far, as far as I know now, it's just Maria, David Olsen and myself. Hope to see some of you there!

Yes Alice, it would be nice to meet you in person. I don't think we have ever had a chance to ride together before:D

I'd like that, too. Not sure this ride is the one, though. How difficult is it??

It does have some climbing, about 3.500 feet, but nothing horribly steep, just sustained. Not like a MUP, but not horrible either. And the scenery is good!

Hi Alice,

The ride was great, but everyone was looking for you at the start. When the time came and you still weren't there, well . . . we just had to go one without you. Sorry!

A very short report and the photos (by me and by Mike Rathewell, our SAG driver) are here on the Rebel website:

Look quick, cause Arthur changes the website often. On the photo with the Onyx sign, I'm on the far left in the yellow and black jersey.
