Title: Group ride/hike Feather Falls - Saturday June 4th, weather permitting :-\
Post by: GreenMachine on June 01, 2011, 11:10:25 PM
Here I am trying again.  Forecast doesn't look promising, but neither did last weekend's and Monday's ride turned out to be pretty darn good.

Post up here if you're thinking of going on this ride.  For more information about Feather Falls, <click here (http://www.waterfallswest.com/waterfall.php?id=203)>.  Here is the planned route (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=N+McCarran+Blvd%2FNV-651&daddr=sierraville,+ca+to:CA-49+S+to:Oregon+House,+CA+to:Bryant+Ravine+Rd+to:Quincy+La+Porte+Rd+to:La+Porte+Rd+to:reno,+nv&geocode=FTIlWwIdjgfb-A%3BFTANXAIdCV_T-Cl3SkPo5_ebgDFkbEFSWol1GA%3BFY6hWgId_DLJ-A%3BFXiHWAIdaW3F-Cnp3nCBMKCcgDGrQhX1-AMKng%3BFSp3XAIdOp7F-A%3BFZjVXQIdCGLK-A%3BFSQUYQIdyOHL-A%3BFaEsWwIdVcnb-CmdoJKSrkCZgDGH9zh0zsXFQA&hl=en&mra=dme&mrsp=6&sz=9&sll=39.487945,-120.58639&sspn=1.167944,2.579041&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=9), but this obviously will depend on road conditions.

This ride/hike has been canceled due to weather.  Sorry again folks.

It is again expected to rain lightly and I don't feel comfortable leading riders on a ride with this many sharp corners in damp-to-wet conditions.  I may reintroduce some of these early season rides and events to the schedule later this season if there's interest.  I know I would like to go again, so I'm planning on it.  We'll just have to wait until the weather clears.
