SF Peninsula C&V Ride: First Saturday of the month
 

After a successful C&V ride in September @genejockey and I decided that we should make this a monthly event (With input from the riders there that day).

This is a ride where a few of us ride together and it's an open invitation for anyone to join us. This is not Eroica compliant. Bring the bike you want to ride, with the set-up you want.

Day: First Saturday of the month

Start Location: The Corner of Edgewood and Canada north of Woodside, about 1/2 mile off of 280 for easy access.

Same time: 10:00AM start

See attached .pdf for the Cue sheet and some pictures. ~30 mile, mostly flat (some rollers), all paved.

Definitely not Eroica compliant! Last time one of the riders was on a CF bike with disc brakes, and nobody made fun of him!

It looks like we will have some great weather and clear (smoke free) skies!

will miss tis one, but have next month on the calendar :)

I think I might have time to join.

I plan to be there on my best bike: 1965ish Cinelli frame (Eroica-compliant) with Campy 10sp triple, SPDs and dual-pivot brakes (decidedly not Eroica-compliant). See y'all then.

I’m in, see you there.

Hey Guys

Great meeting all of you and the ride was superb, even though I had to leave early for honey-do projects back at the house.

Other than a few very short rides, first time for me taking the Masi out on the road. The Masi rode extremely well and surprising that I did not really notice the additional weight compared to my contemporary bikes.

Thanks again for organizing this, see you in November.

Yes, thanks for organizing another good ride! We had a good long discussion at the park halfway where I learned still more good bike stuff. It got a little warm toward the end there. November should be cooler!

I had a great time today. Great meeting everybody, Thanks for organizing the ride and for hanging back with me, @SwimmerMike.

Reminder - Tomorrow is the first Saturday of the month. Unfortunately I won't be able to attend due to some family obligations. Looks like it'll be dry. I hope to see some pictures.

I'll be there! Meet at 10, rollout a little after. Same bat time, same bat channel!

And this time, I'm bringing the Ironman.

As a reminder the cue sheet is in the first post.

I’m out this month, made other plans before thinking. Have a good ride.

Sorry, afraid I can't go either. I've got to catch up on some of my homework. Hope to see you guys next time.

I got there a little late, but rolled out at 10:10, as we had previously. Day started out cloudy, but not too bad. Rolled on through Woodside and Portola Valley as usual. This time, I remembered something I'd thought of before - line up all the bikes for a group shot at Frenchman's Tower on Old Page Mill! I made sure it happened this time!

Yeah, that's right! Today's ride was just me. No biggie, though, I still had fun! Here's a bonus pic of the Ironman.

I'll be there next month, December 4th, barring rain or illness. Same bike time, same bike channel!

I should be in for this month. Dec 4th at 10:00 AM.

I'm hoping to bring my "new" Bianchi. It should win the contest for most "Patina".

Is that the new Ironman, that you were considering/pursuing at the first Peninsula ride?

I have confused IRL conversations with BF handles before...

Looks great!

I will not make it on 12/4, holiday commitments have arisen.

When we did the first ride, I was still thinking about looking for one. I hadn't planned on getting an '85. I was more interested in the red/white of your 86. But this one came up, and it was in my size, and at a good price, and just up in Rohnert Park.....

I’m out this time. AQL is over100 along the route, too high for me.

conflicting sports activities .will be kayaking tomorrow. I know got to get my priorities right :)

Hey Alex -

I'm worried about the AQI also.

All -

The numbers have been moving a lot so I'll make a call at our usual 7:45 to 8:00 tomorrow if I am going to go or not.

@squirtdad I haven't seen any Kayak sections advertised for for Eroica, Cino, or even the TdMIL ride. I really think you need to re-think your decision. But seriously, enjoy the kayaking.

May do Missouri river in Montana after Cino :)

wave at me at coyote point :)

and the fact that i have not hardly ridden for the last 6 weeks has nothing to do with this at all

and is first weekend in January the first or the 8th ?

Yeah, when did the air get so crappy? Yeesh!
