Title: Roll Call: 3 Passes (REDUX) 8:30 AM KSU
Post by: GreenMachine on August 17, 2016, 11:35:19 AM
Planned 8:30 AM kickstands up (KSU).*

Yuba, La Porte, & Bucks Lake, if you dare! 
Our starting point has changed for this ride.
See Java Jungle, 246 W. 1st street, downtown Reno.

The weather will be hot, but not too unbearable.  Might experience some humidity and T-storms, so I'll keep a watch on the forecast.

Ride distance should be in the 350 mile range.  If that's too far, but would like to join us for just a section of the ride, you're welcome to do so...and perhaps others might want to join in your shorter ride.  I'll be doing the full route, so come one, come all!

RSVP** if you're planning on going.   If you do not RSVP, the ride may be canceled even if you had planned on showing up the day of the ride.  We'll depart on the ride as soon as everyone arrives and is ready, meaning, that if there are any newb riders, I will go over some of the key items they'll need to know.

North route ride.  This is a minimum C+ level ride pace route, due to sheer cliffs and unguarded curves.  If you're new to sport riding or riding in general, we'd suggest this ride wouldn't be for you.  Meet at Starbucks or thereabouts (if parking is an issue).

As always, see 2016 SSA Ride Schedule (http://www.sierrasportbike.com/smf/index.php?topic=4549.0) for everything that is expected of you and what you can expect.  *** Safety is paramount. ***

Hope to see you there.

* KSU dependent on when everybody is ready.
** RSVP - répondez, s'il vous plaît a.k.a. please reply.

It is, but this ride is 3 Passes, not to be confused with 3 passes.   :angel

Title: Any interest in meeting at 7:30 AM tomorrow?
Post by: GreenMachine on August 20, 2016, 05:12:13 PM
Looks to be another hot hot hot and muggy afternoon tomorrow.  If we got the JJ early, then there'd be more opportunity to stay ahead of the heat.  :dunno

I'll put up a banner for the new time, if that's what Dragon and RG decide...those who've expressed interest in the ride thus far.

If you are wondering who was waving at you near Quincy, that was Monica and her friend.  She said they say you as they were headed home after riding bucks lake.
