WnD QS 9/16 – Your choice

For the last scheduled WnD of the season I will give you a choice.  We can do Reynolds and 1/2 Hicks or we can do Bolhman which I have been putting off.  The later will probably mean a finish in the dark – I will bring high powered lights and will make sure everyone gets back to LG w/ me if we choose Bolhman.

Hope to see you tonight.

WnD QS 9/9 Blackberry w/ a twist

All right, with the season comming to an end, I wanted to get in a few goats in the area we have not done yet and or do some variations on them.  So tonight we will climb Shannon backwords with a trip up Santa Rosa to soften the legs, then over Kennedy, whats next you say – you have gone by it but probably not up it – Teresita.  This is the steepest street I know of so bring your climbing legs and watch your legs burst like the ripe Blackberry I ate this morning. But no, it is not over we still have to climb the steep Blackberry – Buritos will be deserved tonight (short and sweet).

Hope to see you tonight,

WnD QS – Hicks Reverse

Hi All,  I am a bit overwhelmed with the start of school and some new responsibilities.  Time for a bike ride. To Hicks with it.  We will climb the back side w/ a fast start through the neighborhoods to get us to New Almaden. I did not have time to post the route sheets so I will have plenty at the start.  Hope to see you there.

WnD QS 6/24 – Hwy 9 East

I 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

Come 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.

WnD QS 6/3 – Soda Springs

Hi All,

We will do our first big climb of the year – Soda Springs.  It will entail a short stint in the dirt to get up to the reservoir and back. No route sheets needed.  Hope to see you there.  (20 miles / 3000 feet)
