Hey! I said "rides du jour"...

Don't be flaunting honest to goodness social lives here

OK... well, since I'm feeling a little chatty, here are the rides I know about:

Velogirls - the VG's have 3 different rides listed for Saturday (I think one of them is East Bay-ish) and 2 for Sunday. See www.velogirls.com for details.

Oakland Yellow Jackets - This is still "off-season", but they have Saturday "ride and decide" get-togethers. Meet at the Children's Fairyland parking lot on Lake Merritt in Oakland - rollout at 9 am. No-drop, 30-50 miles over varied terrain depending on group preference. Non-members may have to sign a waiver. See www.oaklandyellowjackets.org for ride requirements (safety stuff).

Oh, and the Bay Area Cycling Clinic... see TE thread on this one. http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=13924

Any individuals out there have a ride planned?

Hi Spazz,

Btw, I ride with the Yellowjackets during the season, and they're a great and diverse group of people. The season kickoff ride is an April 14 ride around Alameda and a picnic (they have the best potlucks EVER), if you or anyone else wants to partake. You don't have to be a member to ride with the club, but you do have to bring a waiver (which is on their website) to each ride if you're not (maybe not in the off-season).

I don't have a ride yet for the weekend, but I'm still needing to take it easy on my knee. If you or anyone is interested in a flattish 20 miles somewhere in the East Bay this weekend, I'd love some company.

How about Alameda Creek trail tomorrow?

Spazz, I know you did this last weekend - would you want to do it again? I'd like a go at the Nemesis hill.

Amy, I heard you were up for this ride tomorrow.
