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.

Meet at Starbucks in Solana Beach (West of I-5, CVS, Dixieline, Henry's lot).
Ride... Do Not Hide!

NOTE: We generally do not start rides in the rain. If the skies look questionable feel free to call Pete on his cell to confirm
participation.
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!
