Santa Barbara ride

Last reminder about the Santa Barbara ride. Friday June 17 leave my house at 6:30am sharp. Mileage is about 110 miles, some climbing on the route but it's not super tough. Make your own arrangements for the return (train or someone picking you up). We will make 4 stops on the way down: Guatelupe, Lompoc, Gaviota, Goletta. Bring $ to buy food, bring any bars or gels you think you'll need in addition. If you are planning on coming then respond to this blog.

Solvang TT - May 20

If you wish to join, a ride is planned from AG to Solvang on the day of the time trial in Solvang. The ride is approximately 70 miles. First half flat, and the second half bumpy. The ride start is 7am. Many of the riders will be hanging with their families at the time trial and enjoying the ToC scene. So the return trip will be determined upon the interest by other riders and your response to this post.

The Solvang TT stage is a great way for cycling enthusiasts to witness the color of the race and really see what goes on in the support of the pro cycling field. You will see equipment and team support that is world class. Not to mention see a very pivotal stage in the race.

For some of you that require a shower in the end, you may pay for a shower head at the local YMCA. For those more manly types, you can wipe down in the parking lot and load and lock your gear. Not sure of the interest at this point, so will not leave those details until we hear some responses.

So far, Rudy Bachmann, Korey Carroll, and yours truly are riding. Let me know if you are interested.

If you read this, pray for the safety of my father (Jeff) who is one of the lead moto marshalls in the race for the entire stage race. He leaves Friday for Tahoe, CA for his 5th tour contribution. Thankful for all their dedication to keeping the road safe for these riders...

Take care all,

Saturday roadie

Hi all: Tim graciously invited me to post, so here goes: 6:30 a.m. roll out from Grace. South on Higuera-Ontario to Pismo. Up Price Canyon to Highway 227. Those who want to break off can head back to SLO. Those who want more can go up Corbett Cyn. Second chance to break off at Tiffany Ranch, or keep going on Corbett to Lopez Lake Drive. Those in for the long haul can come back to SLO via Orcutt.
The more in the peloton, the better!

So I am going to go out on a limb and say we should get a road ride going for this Wednesday. Lets say 7:00 at Islay Park parking lot. Planning for about an hour long ride. Please let me know if you can make it. I've got another race this weekend and could use a group ride to get prepared.

This years ride will be on Friday June 17, check your calendars and set the day aside so you can come join us. For those who haven't done this ride with us, it's a moderate paced road ride (18mph or so ave, 110 miles) with great scenery and company. Ride your bike down to SB and then ride the train back to SLO. Time to start training and get in shape.

Ancient Peaks Mountain Bike Race

Ok gang, I had talked to some of you about my event company was attempting to create a mountain bike race here in the San Luis area. Well here it is, this July we will be holding a race at Santa Margarita on private terrain that is not normally accessed. Here is a link to our blog All-out Events. Feel free to check it out. The race will be going down July 23rd and 24th. I would love to see some of you guys come out and crush if you can make it. This will be our first race at this location. I have already seen a lot of the terrain and it is amazing. Please spread the word and start your training.
