June 6-June 11

"Stopping!" .....

With everyone in a group coming to a full stop, there is a domino effect of the back end  having to hammer it in order to catch up.  So, for those in front,  please soft pedal until the entire group has come through and re-joined.

Several things on the horizon!

Away Ride-Santa Barbara

Saturday, June 13, 9am at Stearn's Wharf

Inaugural ride will be Sycamore Canyon to the beach and back.

Put some tread or knobbies on your road machine and drop that tire pressure,  or use your cyclocross bike.  This is not a single track MTB ride but an excursion that incorporates riding on asphalt and the local fire roads that are in a variety of conditions.  They can be anywhere from hard pack to loose dirt and gravel.  

We'll be starting in the parking lot near 'Beano Vino' in Dos Vientos.

Go Thursday Ride**-5:30pm

Starting locations and routes vary, so check your emails during the week.  

This is an intermediate level ride that starts and ends at local watering holes, so you can finish up with some food, refreshments, and socializing with your cycling friends.

Please remember when parking at The Landing for any weekend morning rides to park and congregate towards the far end of the lot away from the street and use the middle row.  Do not park next to the homes.

** This is considered a "no drop" ride.  The ride leader will keep an eye on everyone. No one is left behind.

All rides not asterisked are considered a "drop ride" so please understand the route before you start (and how to get back). If you get to a regrouping spot and no one is there, consider yourself dropped.  As always we will try to stick together & have a fun safe ride. We will regroup regularly to allow everyone a chance to ride together.

It is mandatory to have & wear a helmet. It is the rider's responsibility to ensure that the helmet is in good condition (check expiration on helmet inner tag) and that your bike is in working condition as well. 

That’s all for now, folks.  Have a great week!
