Hi Everybody,
Just a reminder that we are going to ride to Fenton lake this Sunday, leaving at 8:30 am from Betterday Coffee Shop in the Solana center. The ride is about 73 miles with 6,000' of climbing. The forecast looks great, 70s, an east wind(a little tailwind!) and only a 20% of rain. If you want to leave later, be prepared to ride fast and catch up.
Be sure to bring 3-4 bottles, it's long ride and there is a very long stretch without any stores. And bring some flat changing supplies and tools as well. If the chance of rain increases between now and Sunday, please bring a jacket and long-fingered gloves, it can get very cold in a hurry up there.
If anybody knows somebody who would like to drive up there for free, you are welcome to drive my van. You could ride towards the Valle to meet up with the group. My van has room for a few people and their bikes on the way back. I will bring picnic supplies(sausages/burgers/beer/soda etc), I'll bring a veggie option as well. Otherwise, I won't be able to start with the group
We will likely need a few other drivers depending on our headcount, and it wouldn't hurt to have more food!
Should be a great ride, hope to see you there. Everybody is welcome to join, be ready to climb!
Mike
