The November schedule is posted, first up for the 4's is New York Bagels 'n Bialys in Scottsdale, while the 3's will do Mummy Mountain from north to south, and end up at AJ's at 44th and Camelback for a coffee and nosh.
I should be able to lead the rest of the month as well, with the exception of the 15th (participating in the annual BEAR Run with the local Jaguar club).
See you on Sunday!
Just received from Eugene, who will be substituting as ride leader (please don't abuse him like every substitute teacher I ever had):
We will ride the canal thru Biltmore, Stanford/Lafayette out to 68th St. We’ll go down to Osborn & over the Crosscut Canal, wiggle thru some back streets to 56th & Thomas, where we’ll stop at the Ranch House Grille for coffee/comestibles. You can look up the menu here.
I do have Sunday off now, as last weekend we were 100% successful with our testing. So I've mapped out a route through Sunnyslope, then down to the Grand Canal path, then north on Central to the AJ's at Central and Camelback for a coffee and nosh outside.
See you Sunday!
Following a vote during Wednesday’s Phoenix City Council meeting, all amenities in city parks will begin reopening effective Thursday, October 8 at 5:30 a.m. Reopening of some amenities will require additional time for Parks and Recreation Department staff to make available. Use of select park amenities has been restricted following a series of City Council orders dating to March and April.
Phoenix’s public parks, trails and golf courses have remained open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, but outdoor recreational amenities that present high-touch surfaces or an area that made physical distancing difficult have been temporarily closed as city staff and City Council worked together to monitor positive case metrics.
Community members using the city’s outdoor recreational amenities should continue to follow these guidelines related to responsible physical distancing.
Detailed information about the city's outdoor recreational options and free virtual recreation programs is available at Phoenix.gov/Parks.
First of all, please NOTE THAT OUR START TIME CHANGES TO 7:30 THIS SUNDAY!
October schedule posted for the 4's, first up this Sunday is the International House of Pancakes (be sure to bring your passport!).
It look like I can only lead the 3's this Sunday- the rest of October is unpossible with work.
I have no routes in mind, so if you have an idea, sends those cards and letters today!
The schedule is posted for the 4's group, first up is Country Boys at 32nd St, and Greenway.
The only day I can ride in September is this Sunday Sept 6. The next four Sundays after that I will be unavailable, due to disaster testing at work and the annual cycling vacation in South Dakota. There is no plan yet for the Sunday ride, but I am open to suggestions.
Also, remember that September is the last month of the summer 6:30 start schedule. In October, we switch to 7:30 start. Finally, we may be able to say goodbye to the 110+ temps.
