New Year's Resolution Ride Reminder and Ride Announcement!

Saturday, 01/12/08

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION RIDE!!!

I drove the ride route this afternoon and I have to say… kudos to
Mike Peavy for another outstanding, unknown, scenic cycling route,
soon to be enjoyed by many! The mountains to the west were covered
with snow… so bring your camera! The route is pretty flat, so
it's `fixie' friendly. You will want to bring 2 water bottles and
some money for the general store at the half way point. Besides the
store, there isn't much of anything out there – check your saddle
bag for tubes and air… AND bring some fuel for yourself.

The weather forecast is for CLEAR / SUNNY skies, in the upper 50s!
Holy cow! …could it be fingerless glove weather again???

See you at One Mile to carpool!

Ride Info:
When:
8:00 AM, One Mile, to carpool
9:00 AM, Corning, for the group meeting
9:10 AM, bikes roll!

Where:

Los Montes Restaurant, 1708 Solano Street, Corning, CA. to

What:

Route led, maps, regroups.
Celebratory Ride Feast afterwards at Los Montes Restaurant

Paskenta 'warm-up'!

And with all the FUD being spread in "Tell it to the
ER" regarding cyclists "racing through the park", I
wouldn't be surprised if some local idiot didn't take
this idea and run with it.

Unfortunately the average park user doesn't realize
that in 98% of the encounters I have with them,
they're in the wrong: listening to the iPod, walking 8
abreast, walking Fido with a 50 foot leash, etc.
Perhaps the park department should just stripe the
road in a 75/25 manner and require pedestrians to stay
on "their" 25% of the road?

Anybody know a good Chico chiropractor?  My back has packed it in, and my regular chiro seems to be on vacation.  The view of the living room ceiling is getting pretty boring.

I am in search of a person to ride with as regularly as time will
allow. I am pretty new to cycling so I am looking to ride about 15
miles at a time at a rate of about 15 to 18 miles per hour. I would
like to increase the distance as I become more proficient at riding.
My current work schedule is Monday thru Friday from 5pm til 2am so it
would need to be during the day as weather allows. If anyone is
interested please let me know, you can reach me via email or call 828

or the slideshow here:

And, once they're done processing my little video of the 20 pushup
start, it'll show up here, on Vimeo (not up yet):

Thanks to Jeff Ochs for helping me name all the riders.

Cheers,
Gino
