San Luis Obispo Bicycle Club
Wildflower 2007 Ride - Saturday, April 28

Registration will open at midnight on the morning of January 8, 2007

Get the 2007 Wildflower Jersey as a memento of your experience!


Cruise through the green hills and secluded valleys of northeastern San Luis Obispo County. See California the way it was during the mission days. There are three route options: 50, 75 and 100-miles in length. All three routes begin in Creston and then weave through the roads east of Templeton before stopping for lunch at the northern outpost of Shandon. Return to Creston over rolling foothills facing a delightfully cooling afternoon breeze. Adventurous centurions can continue south on challenging and desolate mountain roads, finally completing a loop back to Creston and a well-deserved barbecue dinner. Come join us and see why we're considered the best ride in California.
The Wildflower registration fee is only $45.00! There is no day-of-ride registration. Moreover, the ride is popular and sells-out quickly. Register early to assure yourself a place.

The SLOBC uses the funds from its rides to sponsor scholarships for the CalPoly Wheelmen and Shandon High School, support programs at Creston Elementary, contribute to the maintenance of mountain biking trails, support bicycle advocacy

Goodness, you all weren't kidding, were you? :eek:

I knew you weren't

[bcipam]

No, not kidding, it does feel up fast although I think this time as the fastest. It's now become such a big deal that it fills up fast, everyone tries to register early - alot at 12:01 am. I bet by next year, it will be fill before it opens up! It's like a cult thing to register before anyone else. I was late at 4:40am.

Do not dispair if you want to do the ride, tickets beome available closer to the ride date.

bicipam, thanks for the encouragement. I was so disappointed when I thought 9 am would be an okay time to register. Bummer . . . :(

[Brandi]

I missed it! But I already live here so i will have to go do the ride and not pay!Awwww don't you feel sorry for me?

[Trekhawk]

Unfortunately my husband is going to be away the week of this ride and will not return early enough for me to travel down to the start.

So before I list my registration for sale on the SLOBC website I though I would post here first and see if any TE ladies are interested.


Thanks TH:)

Thanks for asking. In case you haven't received my private message, I will write here also.

I just returned from Egypt where I rode camels with the Bedouin in the Sinai desert, so am very late in responding to your message written in January.

Unfortunately, I will have to bow out of the Wildflower as I need to get myself back into shape after this long trip.

Thank you very much, though.
