r'dog, officially there is no MeloVelo route that day, but if you do not feel up to the 30 (I think you can) we could recreate it.

You go to the meet point which is at 92 and La Canada. There's plenty of space for parking. It takes perhaps 30-45 min from ride start for the 30/50/55 mile riders to get there, you join us for the out and back for cookies which would be with the 30 mile riders and then we also go on from there. Your mileage about 15 miles most flat/rolling.

Cindysue, what's this about leaving the Bay Area I hear?

Cindysue,

You're very welcome. Thanks for giving me a heads up about the PM's. I had changed my email address in my TE Profile and hadn't finished verifying my account. Oops. Glad to hear you're gonna be back in the saddle by the time this ride happens! But what's this I hear about you leaving the Bay Area?!

Velogirl,

Shoot, sorry to hear you have a conflict on this date. But you know what that means -- we'll just have to stage another TE invasion!

Rogue,

If you're not up for 30 miles by then, I'd certainly be willing to do a shorter route so we can ride with you.

BikerZ,

Yay, you get to go for a ride around this part of the Bay!

Trek,

Thanks for putting this together! I'm up for cookie stops and food & libations afterwards.

What time? I didn't see a time listed. I'd love to do this one, but Jonathan starts soccer the 9th. Maybe I could miss just one game!!

[Trek420]

oops, ride starts at Summit at 10:00 am.

Thought for the day, I don't think I've met mellisam & r'dog so if they do the "make your own Mello Vello ride" how're they going to recognise us?

Options include: we wear AV gear or....

I meet them there and since I'd recognise you, bikerz, Cindysue....

then we all meet up somewhere after.

Melissa, thanks for the offer but I don't want to spoil your fun. Not even sure I'll be going. Just do what you want to do and I'll figure it out from there. Thanks VERY much for the offer.

Trek,

It's easy to recognize me.. I'm the one, the FRED as they called me in another thread, huffing and puffing about to blow over.

[Trek420]

and that would be different from us how?

[melissam]

Rogue,

Well, if you show up, I'd still be happy to ride with you. It certainly wouldn't spoil my fun, and we could meet up with the other TE'ers afterwards for libations and more fun.

Trek,

How to recognize me? Hmmm. I'm short and have a small bike, and I'm mean, especially before 10am. There, that about covers it. Or I guess I could wear a carnation on my jersey or something.

[Trek420]

Working backwards any suggestions on places to eat? There seem to be lots of options in Burlingame.

[cindysue]

But what's this I hear about you leaving the Bay Area?!

nothing to report yet, but it's a possibility. I'll keep y'all posted.........

[mountainpuddles]

I can't make it this time. I am flying to Germany for my brother in laws wedding and stopping in London to visit a pal. I will return on the 3rd of October, so then I will be riding just about anywhere and everywhere in the Bay Area. B
