Whine and Dine Ride: July 1, 2009
July 1, 2009
The Mellow Ride
- The Lollipop Ride <— Click here for route sheet
- Kathy Buck first led this ride once when I was gone. It has a fun ride with twists, turns but I think no rated goats. Try it, you’ll like it! [Map of ride]
This Ride is an ACTC Ride and there is ACTC ride credit for all options.
Be Green, Print Your Own Route Sheet (when they are available)
I am only printing a few route sheets to conserve paper. Riders are encouraged to print your own route sheets before the ride. This is the only way you can be sure to get a route sheet. I am tired of wasting so much paper.
Whine and Dine Ride Details
About the rides
All the Whine and Dine Rides start at 6 p.m. on Wednesday in front of Summit Bikes in Los Gatos, CA. After the rides we go out for fun and food at Una Mas in Los Gatos.

The Wednesday Whine and Dine Mountain Bike Ride
The Whine and Dine Mountain Bike Ride is listed for the same time as the road rides. I will be climbing slowly this year, so the pace is slow and social. The riders can influence which route we choose. The ride is listed for April, May, and June. If there is continued interest I will list it all summer. Meet at the same time and place as the road ride, Summit Bikes 6:00 PM. – Tyler French

WnD QS 6/24 – Hwy 9 East
June 24, 2009I am still trying to build climbing fitness for the Death Ride and was looking for doable long climbs when I noticed that we have never done hwy 9. Well lets change that w/ the extra daylight of the longest days of the year - 25 miles and 2800 feet of climbing. No route sheets – straight forward route w/ a return up 6th street. I hope to see you there. We roll at 6pm

WnD QS 6/17 – Hicks Mt Umunum Ken/Shan
June 17, 2009Come visit the resting place of the hummingbirds (translation for Umunum). If you make it to the top, you will have done one of the most difficult rides we will do all summer, the only ride more difficult is Bolhman w/ the on Orbit option. Be prepared for steep grades rewarded w/ some spectacular views off of Mt Umunum. Hope to see you tonight. No route sheets since the ride is very straight forward.
