Saturday, 11/24, 8am: Rancho SF/Santa Luz w/ Teradactyls
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
If you are feeling a little guilty by the end of the day, US Coastal & The Teradactyl Bike club have a couple of remedies for you.
We will ride both Sat & Sun at 8am from the Starbucks in Solana Beach , just West of 5 , Lomas Santa Fe Exit.
The Saturday ride will be a rolling hill loop through the ranch & Santa Luz , no harm no foul (that's a Thanksgiving joke) but a good warm up for Sunday's ride detailed below. Not sure it's possible to get all 4 assaults on Mt. Soledad completed with the houses sliding down the hill and the street dropping off , but however many we are able to do will surely make you faster (if it doesn't kill you ;-). For you amnesty seekers , there is no requirement that you do all of the climbs anyway, come and join us!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving
The Teradactyl's will ride from the Starbucks at Lomas Santa Fe (West side) on Thursday at 8am
The route will be North on 101 and your cut off point will be dependant on how much Turkey you plan to eat.
1/2 serving of Turkey , no gravy or stuffing , skip the pumpkin pie : Shoot , just stay at Starbucks
1 full serving of Turkey & fixin's : continue up Alga to Palomar Apt Rd & return
1 full serving plus desert : Cut back to the Coast at Tamarak
A 2nd helping w/ desert and wine : Oceanside Bike Path and then home
Finally, if you anticipate 2 servings, complete desert array, wine , coffee and a FB game from the couch : throw in a Sleeping Indian loop and you have earned your Happy Thanksgiving Day with no Guilt!!!
Cheers

Sunday, 11/18, 7am: Couser Canyon Loop
Join us for some saddle time on Sunday, November 18, 2007. We roll at 0700 hours/ 7:00am. Our plan is to head towards Valley Center via Lake Wohlford Rd; turn left on Woods Valley Rd., jog over to Lilac Rd, Lilac to Couser Canyon, North to Route 76 & back Westbound to the coast... The last 30 miles or so will be relatively flat including the San Luis Rey River bikepath and PCH from O'side back to Solana Beach. Bring plenty of fuel and a climbing attitude. Ride will be approx 85 miles with approx 5000 vertical gain (rough estimate). Plan on approx. 7 hours for this one... Rated "Outstanding" by San Diego County Cycling Connoisseur's Magazine.

PS A special thank you to Bruce Cline of the US Coastal Folsom crew for leading us on a Sac-n-Back tour of the American River Bike Trail. We started in Folsom, rode to Discovery Park across the bridge from Old Town Sacramento and returned. 53 miles, 16.2 mph average and some good pace line work. Andy doubled his miles for the year (ouch) and hung in there to the finish. Lori did some outstanding pulling until her enthusiasm took her and two others out on the damp pavement(fortunately she was prepared and was passing out ibuprofen after the pile up). Only flesh and ego wounds... Oh... and Bruce... You will need a helmet and a spare tube for road biking... just a hot tip! :-) Good time... thanks to all!
