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.

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 Ride: July 08, 2009

While Steve is wandering through Paris and Ireland, we’ll be wandering the streets of Los Gatos. It’s not quite as adventurous, but it will suffice.  Reynolds doesn’t involve quite so many turns as last week so let’s give it a go.

Steve is heading out for a few weeks

From Steve:
Sue and I are headed out of the area. Amy Marsh will be leading the mellow rides when I am gone.

Thanks Amy!

She has the ability to post to this blog and the Whine and Dine Facebook group. I will not have my iPhone when I am gone because AT&T wants to charge me an extra $200 a month for an international data plan. I will have my iPod Touch and so will have e-mail and I will be posting mostly on my personal Twitter Feed.

Please follow us here:

I will have the ability to post to the whine and dine Twitter feed, though I do not know why I would! I will lead the ride on the 28th. Have some epic rides!
