Those of us who bought one of Biciclista's water color jerseys, are we all going to wear them tomorrow?

My favorite forecaster says dry on Sunday under partly sunny skies, high of 69.

what a great ride!
great weather!
wonderful country side.
Lots of happy women on bikes.
Lots of cute guy cheerleaders (In particular the firemen, they were HOT! - they gave out redhots too!!)
I did the 40+ miles with a younger friend of the family, it was the longest ride she'd ever been on. She also was using SPD clipless pedals for the first time.
She had a blast too!
Gee, thanks to whomever suggested we do this ride!I like Bikes - Mimi

Couldn't have asked for better weather!
Salsabike and I have found that we ride at about the same pace, so we basically stuck together and took turns leading. The route was fantastic and I can't get over how well organized it all was.
We saw Biciclista, MM_QFC, and LilBolt at the finish.
Susan, sorry we missed you -- MM_QFC said she saw you, though!

I am kicking myself for not getting a picture of those firefighters! Gotta love a ride when you come around a bend to find a bunch of firemen whooping and cheering and handing out little boxes of Hot Tamales. These people are FUNNY.
I WILL post some portapotty pictures later on, though. Those were a hoot, too. What a great ride this is!"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude.

The firefighters were definitely a highlight! And it seemed like the ratio of riders to volunteers was 2:1.
Nice to finally put some faces with the Nicknames/Avatars. I waited for some friends who did their very first organized ride...they did great on the middle sister. I'm so proud of them! Lots of hugs.
