Thanksgiving Ride Time 9:00, route info
by Sheri L 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

Hi All. Time for the Pre-Turkey Burn! *Revised: Our holiday start time is 9:00 at The Landing. * Sorry for any confusion. Here are the route options: We will all start together. The main route will be a rock store loop. For those that would like a shorter flatter option, you can ride to the Old Place (near Peter Strauss ranch) out and back. For those with a little extra in the tank, you can add the upper Encinal section. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/6811384 None of these are long rides, and make good options for any level. If you are out of town, wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving, and if you are in town, hope to see you for the pre turkey burn. Thankful for all of you! -- Sheri

Tuesday Morning Away Ride-A good one!
by Sheri L 19 Nov '23

19 Nov '23

Hi All. We will be having a Tuesday Morning "away" ride this week. Perfect timing as it will be so windy here and NO wind in SANTA BARBARA. We will leave from Padaro Lane across from the Garden Market and go on Mountain Rd. to Tucker's Grove in Goleta, then Hope Ranch and back. We will leave from Padaro Lane at 9:00. Allow a little extra time to get there. It WILL be worth it! Please download the route. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/33810820 We are also having a Thanksgiving Morning Ride, and Jerry will send out more details. This will be a local ride. Don't forget to send in your survey questions. See you Tuesday Morning, -- Sheri

Tie breaking game and some party info
by Sheri L 18 Nov '23

18 Nov '23

Hi All, We have some need for tie breaking in our "award" game. Would love to have more input! What else are you doing on a rainy Saturday morning/afternoon? Short bike ride, lots of reminders of who is who... let's have some fun! Of course there are directions to follow, please look carefully. I have had a few results come back and I am not sure of the person they are describing. Do you have a last name? Or initial, or description, or even what group they could be in? Send me a private email if you need help.(even if you have already sent) Directions: Please nominate someone you think should get the "award" for the following. If you do not know their last name, please give a good description....maybe what group they ride in, and also there may be more than one person with the same initials such as Kent Kilgore, and Kent Koral have same initials. Please don't put yourself down. Please only pick one person and you can skip any you want. Please send back by November 30th. This is all in good fun! I know a few of you will not make it to the party, but feel free to do the game anyway! I am attaching the link to the survey for the game. I am also adding the invite so that you can reply to the party invite... We need to order the correct amount of food, so please RSVP as soon as you can. Here is the survey.
