Ride is this Saturday! Swiss Theme

I will have a small prize for the rider who best exemplifies the theme!
Will be our typical route up the trail to Folsom of 27 miles and about 1,100 feet of gentle climbing on mostly bike trail grades.
(I recognize this is not the typical third Saturday, but this is a weird month with 5 Saturdays and this keeps the rides spread out better. It also avoids a conflict with a number of popular rides taking place the weekend of the 15th.)
Ride start location: Starbucks Gold River-https://maps.app.goo.gl/15bgaCyZDRUKjiCd7?g_st=ic

As usual, I will bike to the ride start from the Guy West Bridge. I leave at 9 a.m. sharp.
Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday for our Swiss themed ride! No requirement to ride a Swiss bike. Just find a way to capture the vibe. There will be a tasty prize for the rider who best captures the Alpine spirit.
