[Foothill Cycle Club: 2144] Saturday Ride Leaders Needed

Image
Ride Leaders Needed for the Following Rides FCC Members, I'll be off the bike until mid-November for medical reasons. We'll need some volunteers for weekend rides between now and then. The following  Saturday (and 1 holiday ride) rides are at risk of cancellation if we don't have ride leaders.  Below is a link to a spreadsheet with the upcoming rides. Each ride requires a leader. If a ride does not have a leader, the ride will be canceled the Thursday prior to the ride. To volunteer, respond to the following email address: brian@coxintl.com -- ----------------------------------------------------   http://www.foothillcycle.org/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Foothill Cycling Club" group.

[Foothill Cycle Club: 2141] Fwd: Sunday ride for 10/27/2024 - Down for the Count

From: Stan Schwarz < stan7826@gmail.com > Date: Fri, Oct 25, 2024 at 5:03 PM Subject: Sunday Moderate ride for 10/27/2024 - Down for the Count It's the Sunday before Halloween, so it's time for our annual ride to Culver City to visit Bela Lugosi's grave. We've been doing this ride for Halloween since 2007. Snacks and drinks at Grand Casino Bakery in Culver City. Weather for this weekend looks all right. But on the off-chance it rains. this route stays close to the Metro E line, so there's bailout options available. -- Stan Schwarz          http://1134.org     stan7826@gmail.com -- ----------------------------------------------------   http://www.foothillcycle.org/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Foothill Cycling Club" group.

Fwd: [Foothill Cycle Club: 2140] We have a week of wonderful cycling ahead

Tomorrow's ride destination.  Brian ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Stan Schwarz < stan7826@gmail.com > Date: Fri, Oct 25, 2024, 5:49 PM Subject: Re: [Foothill Cycle Club: 2139] We have a week of wonderful cycling ahead To: Brian Cox < brian@coxintl.com > Apparently the L.A. Times still has the boat article from 2014 online. https://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-adv-backyard-boat-20140427-story.html It said that Mr Griffith had been building the boat since 1977. We went to see it in May, 2014. He saw us looking at it and invited us in for a tour of the boat. He said he was hoping to get it towed out to Oxnard that September. But that seems not to have happened. And given that he was something like 82 at the time, it seems doubtful now that it will ever happen.
