    Memorial Day Weekend ride?

    Anyone up for a ride somewhere either on Saturday the 28th or Monday the 30th? We could do the aforementioned reservoirs loop in our neck of the woods. Or maybe the Woodside loop that we tried to do on President's day?

    Traveler's Question:

    What is the distance of these routes and will you feed me well afterwards if I were to make the journey over there?

    Have to do a cost-benefit analysis. Of course one of the biggest benefits is riding with all of the TE women! Y'all rock.

    Well, the reservoirs loop is about 40 miles that we can add to by tooling around Gilroy a bit. However, if we add on the Almaden Reservoir/Hicks/Shannon/Kennedy climbing route, that probably adds another 15 miles or so... not totally sure.

    I LOVE to cook and will make sure that anyone who comes to our house afterwards is well fed. We can discuss menu options. Blaine and I are partial to grilled pork tenderloin marinated in garlic, olive oil and rosemary and stuffed with prosciutto and provolone as a company barbeque thing. Any veggies out there? Other suggestions? We aim to please. (And I'll make sure to get the carrot cake I was talking about in another thread.)

    I can ride on the 30th, but not the 28th. So if you plan something for that day, you can pretty much count me in. Since I start the AIDS ride the following weekend, I'd vote for a flat(ter) route than say Mt. Hamilton.

    It's starting to warm up- this weekend temps forecast in the 90's inland. There go our green hills and wildflowers!

    Oh no, not pork! Oh wait, it will be after the ride.

    We had our teacher appreciation luncheon the day of our last Diablo ride. Pork was on themenu. It's being blamed for me wanting to hurl the entire climb. Or maybe it was the heat.

    We wouldn't want you to go to a huge expense. Those of us who are local should be able to bring something to share. Yellow should just show up!

    I can't commit to the ride yet. I may be in Napa that weekend.......
    Cheers!

    Bummer! You know, we don't HAVE to do this ride over Memorial Day. We can do it for another time. It was just an idea. I want as many of us as possible to be able to make it.
