New Years Day Ride!
Ok, so the weather forecast right now looks really good. Upper 50's and sunny. So I'm gonna go for a ride. Anyone want to join in? More details to come, but it'll likely start here in Rancho or towards Folsom. Maybe the Fish Hatchery.

Anyone? Likely 60 to 65 miles. Not too much climbing.

Don't mince words
We're likely to stay close to home, maybe do a Lake Loop, since some of the folks with whom we're riding are paying for child care.
Hope you get some takers!

Hey, on the Lake Loop, what time would you be leaving? Clock Tower?

I've almost convinced myself to do Diablo. It's a tradition that i haven't taken part in.
Right now it's foggy and cold here, so I may have to really work on my head to get myself out the door.

I'm heading up Diablo out of Berkeley tomorrow. 85 miles or so with a slight hint of a hangover. Drink lots of water tonight!!!!!
Glad to hear about the weather though. I've never been up Diablo in a reasonable temperature. It's always been 85 or so.

J/KWe'll be on the tandem, giving new meaning to the term "crawls up hills."
Looking forward to good company and a good ride!
