NorCal Event Calendar
I thought it might be helpful to both the regulars and the visitors if we had a thread (perhaps stickied
) that summarized all the upcoming events. We could list them with links to the specific thread, and just update the calendar as needed.
Apologies for getting behind in updating the thread...mommyhood is taking a bit of my time.

September 29-30 - MS Waves to Wine

Got to set a date for the Wheelsuckers Tandem Rally.
And maybe Ron can get that joint Nor-So-Cal ride.

Ok, a couple more (these aren't on my list to do this year, so I didn't see them when I checked my calendar):
America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride 6/1
Climb to Kaiser 6/28 (killer ride, supposed to be harder than the Death Ride)
Marin Century 8/2
Mt. Shasta Summit Century 8/3
And someone else will have to list the doubles!

More to add:
Cool Breeze Century in Ventura - 8/16/2008
Spooktacular Century in Bakersfield - 10/25/2008
Yeah, I know, it's kinda far, but for those that want to do it, there you have it.
