Hi All
For those Red Riders not riding Sat.'s Away Ride, the MS 150 from Ventura
or Karen's "climbfest" - here is my suggestion for a local Red Ride.
P.S.: It's the same as last week's red ride announcement as I understand with
last week's wind conditions, no one rode this ride.

Hi All:
The Accuweather forecast looks like a pretty certain chance of rain
in our area during our normal riding time tomorrow.
http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Thousand+Oaks&state=CA...
As an alternative plan - I might consider riding this route around 1:00pm
to allow time for the rain to stop and roads to dry up somewhat.
Any other Red/Orange Riders interested?
