Hi everyone!

Many thanks to everyone who came to yesterday's ride and planning party. And special thanks to Creed and Jenne for putting together a great ride to El Capitan reservoir and a wonderful party (capped off by hot tub, swimming and bocce ball). In addition to especially good food (some people even left without sampling dessert!), we had a really interesting presentation by Nathan Briner of TrueBalance, about how poor posture creates pain and affects strength and performance, and how to correct it principally through stretching, massage and focused exercises. If anyone would like more information, let me know, and I'll put you in touch with Nathan (who will be happy to talk with you--he offered free evaluations for club members and half off the first session; several people are taking him up on it).

Below is the ride schedule (with leaders) that we put together. Please note that we have a gap in the schedule in September, on the 11th and/or the 25th. (We're working around Labor Day weekend, and the Dana Point tour on Sept. 17-18).  So if you're willing to lead a ride in September either before or after the Dana Point tour--or any other time between now and the end of October--please come forward (i.e., contact me). Note that there are also some other anomalies in the schedule, owing to holidays. Join us!

Thanks!

Sarah
