Greetings Red / Race Riders, Let's take advantage of the Holiday and get in an extra ride. The temperature is expected to increase so let's meet up in Carpinteria at the Albertson's parking lot:1018 Casitas Pass Road, Carpinteria, CA. @ 9 AM. The plan is to ride up into Goleta and back on a route similar to the Cool Breeze Century. After the ride, grab a bite to eat and stop in the Island Brewing Company for a beverage. http://www.islandbrewingcompany.com/ Here is the Orange Route slip: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/688280 *We will follow the same route but rather than turn onto Turnpike, we will stay on Cathedral Oaks till the end, cross the freeway and return via Hollister. We will be on the same route for the return as the Orange group. We should end up with about 62+ miles.* *Inclement weather policy: In the interest of safety, whenever it is either actively raining or the ride route has wet roads, it is our club policy to cancel a club ride. Club members may still choose to meet and ride in these conditions; however, the ride will not be considered an official club ride.* ** John Caffrey 805-231-0151
