August 22 - BYOB / Echo Canyon

 

I am back from the Hoosier state, visiting family there and friends in the Champaign-Urbana metroplex. After being off the bike for a week, I am going a little stir-crazy, and the rain deluge today is NOT helping. 

The 4's are headed off to Oink for breakfast, so we're going to wander Arcadia and end up at Echo Canyon for a break (bring something with you to graze on). The weather promises to be back to sunny and hot, sez the talking heads on the TV. 

Rock on...

August 15 - Need A Leader

 

The 4's are heading to Irma's Kitchen, and I am unavailable to lead this Sunday the 15th. So you all can tag along with Richard and crew, or converse and confer among yourselves and come up with a plan. 

See you on the 22nd, but until then, rock on...

Richard sent out the schedule for August, and the 4's will be trekking to Joe's Diner Sunday

That is, if its not raining. Forecast looks monsoonie thru Saturday, so if that bleeds into Sunday morning, sleep in! 

Rock on...

July 25 - The Road To Nowhere In Particular

 

I am buried at work this week, and have not had time to even think about Sunday and a route, nor a stopping place. I have had to skip my morning ride the last two days, and tomorrow doesn't look promising either. 

I'll come up with something by Sunday, unless the work issues keep snowballing into an avalanche. But if you have an idea, bring it. 

My friend Dean sent me this, an 18-year old guitar virtuoso, with an acoustic version of "Time". Take a listen, it's amazing. One of the commenters wrote "The door just slammed downstairs. It was my guitar leaving me."

The 4's are headed to Scramble at 7th St. and Mountain View, and the 3's will be meandering easterly and take a break at Arizona Falls. Forecast is for 105, oh joy.

Gary sent me this awhile ago. Push play, take a ride around Rome, New York, Rio, Hong Kong and Monaco, and turn your speakers up to 11...

July 11 - BYOB / Mountain View Park

 

While the 4's will be going to The Cracked Egg, the 3's will again be forgoing a restaurant stop due to the oppressive heat and stop at Mountain View Park for a short break. Bring along a Clif bar or something similar. The low Sunday morning will be 91 degrees, and headed to 114. Same as it ever was...
