Looking ahead the weather looks iffy for the Velo Girls Co-ed Singles ride but I'll do the anti-rain dance in hopes for any of you who are going. And we want a ride report.

As for the following weekend, I'm goin'. Anyone else?

I thought it was always sunny in Sunny California?

We had hail and rain and sleet and sunshine yesterday! Mmmmm, Seattle biking weather!

Flossie and I want some CA biking weather. See ya in 2 weeks!

This is CA biking weather. If you don't like the weather....wait 15 minutes.

Ladies, are you looking for that guy who will not be parked in front of the tube watching the pre-game hype?

Join the velogirls co-ed ride this Saturday.

Next Saturday (2nd Saturday of each month) will be the girls only single ride. Note: we also need new ride leaders for this one 'cause I don't qualify.

If you're bi, double your chances of finding a bike date and go to both

check the calendar on www.velogirls.com for ride meet time, contacts and location

It was raining pretty hard in the East Bay when I woke up, kept raining as I got ready and through the drive. By the time I arrived at Woodside, found the public lot and rode down to the bakery it had stopped.

Five women were there. I thought "cool", they came out in the rain after all.

It was the Mello Velo, our easy and/or beginner ride.

We waited a little, I rode back up to the lot to see if there were any last minute arrivals for the Single Gals ride. Wooo hoo, mini hill repeats.

None, so at about 10:15 I decided to ride with the Melo gals and we left.

Still not raining. As we rode out it drizzled a little bit off and on, rained some but never real hard. We turned around at 92, just rain, stop, drizzle, stop, rain, stop, repeat.

Wind picked up but I was warm in my wool undershirt and the smartwool socks from my Secret Sister (If that sounds like a wool ad, it is ).

I was glad I brought the MTB because I offered to sweep the last rider I slowed...then dropped to my lowest gear....then at one point I was cheerfully saying encouragements while doing one legged drills .... while climbing....super slow but a great workout

This had been her longest ride ever and if you're lurking, you did great!

Menace is happy, filthy and covered in mud as a MTB should be.

So am I (no fenders) but this was fun. Now we both deserve a nice bath and hot cocoa.
