BF Ride to the Prolog Tour of CA
Starting a separate thread so that this might be easier to see.
Meet at corner of Hwy 92 and Canada Road @ 10 am.
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UT...mid=1203185199
Ride to the start of the Prolog in Palo Alto.
Wear your bikeforums jersey, and represent us well at the Prolog. I hear there is a celebrity prolog that will take place, but not sure exactly when it is.
So far, here is who I have that's going:
spingineer
uspspro, and gf Ruth
mtnwalker
genejockey
blastradius
SanJoseBob
SesameCrunch
Meeting us along the way:
steelblue
Kachunk
Anyone else?

I'm going to take Caltrain 423, arriving in San Mateo at 9:00, then ride Crystal Springs to meet up with y'all. After the races, I'll cruise on home down Foothill and Homestead. Gonna be sporting my first ever pair of biking shorts and just a hint of the tan I got last year on my whitey legs. Baggys, not spandex. Old dog, new trick? 8^)

I'll do it. I might meet you guys coming the opposite direction though, because I'm actually coming from palo alto. So don't wait for me at the start.

I'm leaving home around 8 am, so that may put me at Homestead and Foothill around 8:30. I'll hang out by Peet's.
