Please join me on a shorter, 15 mile, slow-paced ride from Gold River up to Natoma Station Drive. We will ride around some neighborhoods at 10+ mph and stop half-way at a lovely park for our break.

For new members, I’ll explain the reference to the Wild Chicken at the start. There are 3 routes that go from Maidu Park in Roseville out to Bru coffee house in downtown Loomis. The short route is 32 miles with 1,100 ft climbing (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37763876). The intermediate route is 35 miles with ~1200 ft climbing (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37763887). The long route is 39 miles and ~1700 ft climbing (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37763885). The intermediate route will be swept. Bru is a small coffee house, but there are other options in downtown Loomis including the Ugly Mug which is more of a breakfast place and Starbucks on Horseshoe Bar Rd.

Yes it is Teddy Roosevelt's birthday today so lets celebrate with a ride to Newcastle Produce. We will start at the Folsom Village Shopping Center at 9AM. Note the route goes by the Flower Farm on the way back if you are still hungry.
Here is the route from the club library. *Newcastle Produce-2A (flat)
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/29261996
It is 41 miles long and tries it best to stay away from busy roads. It is rated as a "B" ride only because of the long climb into Newcastle. The route does have 1800 feet of climbing overall in keeping with TR's belief in the The Strenuous Life.

Casual ride on the bike trail for those who are getting back into riding and for those who want to take it easy. This ride is for every level of riders.Mostly flat with a couple of bumps.May go to Bela Bru afterwards. F-20 miles

Same old question - to do Park Dr or not to do Park Dr? We'll circle out toward Rocklin and you can make up your mind along the way. If you have your stats from January 2020, how will they compare?

This was the first ride cancelled due to Covid and then again due to 110 temperature when the calendar opened. Hoping the third time try will be a go.

Route will be posted a week or so before.
