I'v been debating all week. I ride the Bianchi almost daily, but brought it last time. So the Bob Jackson is my steed for the ride.

Great ride, gang!!! Nice selection of bikes and folks, beautiful day, etc!
Sorry I kept getting so far ahead on the downhills. What can I say? I'm fat, and I rebuilt the hubs less than 200 miles ago!

It was great meeting and riding with you guys. Only one mechanical issue in the shakedown, but I can confirm that it was operator error.

Sorry I was not able to make this one. This work thing is really interfering with what's important.
I hope to be able to join on May 7 [fingers crossed]

It was a pleasant surprise to have come across you guys at Portola Town Center on my blue/white semi retro Colnago. I didn't know this vintage ride is a regular thing till Mike told me about it. In any case I will try to make the May ride with something truly vintage.

Great bike pics!
Wow, the paint on the green Nishiki really Pops! I've never seen one like it.
All very cool bikes. What's the blue one? Well, I guess I gotta try to make the next ride to find out.
Good job all. Thanks for the pics cinelliguy

It's that time again! Saturday, 10 AM by the Rock Wall. As always, bring any bike, C&V bikes preferred. I'm thinking this month we try for an Italian theme, in honor of the Giro d'Italia, which started today.
I'm bringing the Battaglin, which stretches the definition of "C&V", but is unquestionably Italian!

I might actually make it this time. The closest I have to an Italian is my "Competizione," but I won't be able to get to the adjustments it needs prior to the ride, so it would either be on my Motobecane or Mercian. I'd be sure to honor the theme by having pizza the night before. I hope I can make it...

I'm 90+% sure I'm in. I'm thinking Italian also. Probably the Colnago. But the Bianchi generally calls my name when I go to grab a bike.

I think I will bring my Gios. It is RED and not the traditional blue, and it's Dura Ace equipped...gulp! See ya!
