Marin Ride January 6?

[Trek420]

maillotpois I need to confirm when cpr class is over and will get start time and details.

I knew you'd been off the bike but do we all need cpr? Maybe for me because I will be in the back.

trek - you're funny!!!

Here's da plan:

saturday 1/6. meet at 12:30, to roll at 1. should be warmer by then.

meet: mill valley middle school. (take hwy 101 to tiburon blvd./e. blithedale - turn west toward mill valley. at 3rd light (camino alto) go LEFT. at next light (sycamore) go LEFT. park at lot on left at end of rd.)

route: 55 miles w/plenty of ways to make shorter or longer. mostly rollers w/ a couple of actual climbs. as my HR is to be below a certain # I go 3 mph on most of the climbs. so there.

food: route takes you by organic ice cream, coffee houses, possibly a bakery or 2.

maps: I will throw something together.

rain: well, if its super nasty we may skip to the champagne part of the ride early.

after ride: stop by my house for champagne and snacks of some sort. (dont get your hopes up on the food. my strength is the beverage part.)

bonus: if anyone does keel over, I will just have been recertified in cpr and may actually remember it's "x" number of compressions to "x" number of breaths, etc....

If this sinus infection I got for Christmas has cleared up by then I would love to join you guys too. Haven't seen some of you (Jo and Trek) in a while, and have wanted to meet the rest of you! I should know by mid-week if it is a go. Also, any south bay folks want to car pool? I would be willing to meet somewhere. Let me know.

This sounds like fun, and I'd like to join you, but will let you know for certain a few days before. I haven't ridden 50 miles in a while, but I know that I can. (I'm from the San Mateo area.)

P.S. Is there a SAG vehicle?

I lost track of this loop (holiday stress), is this still the plan. I like the 12:30 start time.

I would definately be up for the shorter loop option. I am still recovering from a sinus infection, I feel fine, but have very little voice still.

Anyone else from the south bay still thinking about going and want to carpool? if you want me to drive I can put my bike on my roof rack, and have room for one in my trunk with the back seats down. Let me know.

[kjay]

Thanks for rounding us up for answers. After reading all your messages, I believe I need more bicycling experience before I ride with you all. And, I still need to get toe warmers for these cooler temps before riding more than a couple of hours. Have a great ride, and some day I will join you. Thanks, again.

[Veronica]

Oh, come on Kjay - we're really not scary. Well Jo is... but the rest of us are perfectly normal. Where did I put my axe? Oh yeah, Jo has it...

If there will be a shorter ride, I'm still interested. My back's a little out of whack (that's a medical term), so 30 miles should feel like 100 for me, and take me just as long.

[maillotpois]

Anyone can turn around in San Anselmo or Fairfax for a shorter ride. You can do 10, 15, 20 miles - whatever!
