    Oooh, good idea! The Tour of Napa Valley in August would be fun.

    Hey, I 've got the route sheet for the Napa Metric and the Napa Century. I think we should do this BEFORE it gets too hot! The ride last year (in August) was in 95-100 degree weather and I almost wilted on the vine (no pun intended here).

    Get those reservations in! Oh, by the way, Benicia is a short distance away from Napa so if you can't get in up there, we've got lodging here and yummy food! AND we could do something at my place afterwards (I have a place close to the water in Benicia. We even have a pool!)

    Afterwards we can eat at the Red Hen- a great Mexican Restaurant! I'm getting hungry already

    Good idea. I love this ride (and it's on my calendar too), but it does get hot.

    Poor Bubba. Last year we did 2 organized rides, the Chico Wildflower and the Tour de Napa. I ended up ditching him both times because he had to ride so slowly with the heat and he kept stopping to "drain" his helmet pads. If the weather is unseasonably hot this weekend, he'll never let me pick a ride again.

    Poor Bubba! Why are you ditching such a nice guy? It's supposed to be about 70 this Saturday, so *should* be pleasant. Keep fingers crossed.
