Sunday;  Easy Ride; 8 AM Start

 

Start and end, CalTech Tennis courts near the Athenaeum

The 20 mile or less ride starts from Caltech (corner of Hill and San Pasqual) and heads to a local breakfast destination.

 

This Sunday; This week's destination, Homestate, Altadena

 

Sunday;  Moderate Ride; 8 AM Start    

The ride is typically 40 miles departing from Victory Park, Parking lot North side of Paloma St, and is for those looking for interesting sites and faster pace ride than the Sunday Easy Ride.

 

Well, the weather is looking iffy again. The current forecast says it's supposed to rain Saturday but stop that night. And then it's supposed to start again Sunday afternoon. So we're going to do the east-facing Metro Rail Tour. That's out to Glendora and back, never more than two miles from the nearest Metro Rail station, in case we need to bail out along the way. So bring your TAP card if you have one. And if not, I have several spare ones in my bike bag.
