I've felt blessed the last two thursdays - perfect weather for Mt. Diablo!

I can certainly tell how out of shape I've become over the rainy season. But I think these weekly rides will be just what I need - well that and a ton of riding during my two months off which starts at the end of May ~ yippee!

so another thing I think I will vastly improve is my descending skill. Mt. Diablo is great for that because of all the corners. And coming down on the south side is gradual enough that I don't get too freaked out.

And next week, more daylight!


oh, p.s. - ride on Sunday:

30 miles, 630 feet of climbing

Meet us at the Pleasanton BART station around 9:45 for a 10am ride.

*Take BART or drive. Meet us in the reserved parking area near Owens Drive. See: http://bart.gov/docs/permit/pk_dublinpleasanton.pdf

We’ll break up into two groups by average speed:
* 12-16mph
* 16mph +

Hope to see you there!

Here’s the route: http://www.oaklandyellowjackets.org/...ivermore_L.pdf

Ooh, I will keep that in mind, cindysue. Let's hope for some nice weather.

How rainy does it have to be before you guys call it off?

safety first is our motto, so group rides will typically get cancelled with any serious threat of rain.

today was sort of a wierd day. The weather gods in walnut creek couldn't make up their minds: sun, rain, sun, rain.

Hopefully it is a sign that things are transitioning.

we'll decide Sunday by 8am if the Pleasanton ride is a go or not....

Looks like we might make a riding day tomorrow! The percentage forecast for rain is down to 50% from 70%! NOW that's an UPSTAT!!!!!

HAPPY RIDING AND HAPPY EGG DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

chance that I'm looking at a downpour as I type this: 100%

No Pleasanton ride today.

...hope for better weather on Thursday!
