Today's forecast is no rain for a few more days so, as of right now, we're still intending to ride. Cupcakes and bubbly will be served so let me know if you're going. It's a little B-day celebration for my LOF so one and all are invited.
Kim, Tam is physically no harder than the Berryessa ride. From an email sent by our frend Chris (who will be riding Sunday), I would deduce that Mt. Diablo's trails are much steeper, so if you can do those . . .
Time is still 11 am at Natalie Green Park (off Lagunitas Road near Ross)
Of course, if the forecast changes . . . .

Nevermind . . . .
Geez, none of the weather forecasts seem to match, but we're kind of sick of being caught in the rain and cleaning mud. Since so many people got called away with family emergencies and events, we're going to just reschedule.
Anyone want to suggest a date? We'll try again.

Made the right choice
We would have been caught at the summit in howling winds and rain.
We went for a 30-mile road ride near Winters, had lunch and were then going to drive our April 9th route. At 3 pm, we could see the rain sheeting down the canyon so it had to have hit Mt. Tam much earlier. Could have been nasty business up there. Whew!

Yep you did! We went on our usual Sunday ride across the Carquinez bridge, up Cummings Skway, and eventually into Martinez. I am making a route map so anybody can do this ride!
We started out at 8:00AM and I was home just after noon. 43miles in, yippee
I'm glad you all didin't go too. I wondered if you would get down to Pleasants Valley road in time!
