Default Thursday Ride

Thursday morning, 9am anyone? I'm in HB, will start from here and meet up as we go along.

I usually ride up Newport Coast, down San Juaquin to the bike path and back, but we see how we feel (more miles, more flat, climbs etc). My personal fave is Shady Canyon

Count me in.
Can you ride any earlier, like 8?
Where do you want to meet? I'm near Main and Garfield.
Do you go up over shady canyon and then where?

What distance are you thinking?

Man, I am needy with the questions!

I'll be in the Toyota gear...

8am will work. I'm at Beach/Talbert, close to the library if you'd like to meet there.

I'm not sure where we can meet on Garfield/Main, unless we go to the Starbuck's in the Albertson parking lot (Yorktown/Main/Golden West)

Not sure what I'll be wearing, but I'll be on a silver/black Scott. You will wait for me, right? Cause I really AM slow

Not sure after Shady Canyon, I haven't been doing as many long road rides as I should (especially this weekend) and want to do the 50 miler on Saturday--either back or through Laguna Canyon?!?!

Well, it was a rather blistery blundery windy day today, so I think I'd prefer to ride a heavy mtn bike or at the track if it's this windy tomorrow.

I know that last time I tried to ride in this kind of wind, I only got 1 hr in and nearly knocked over 6 times before heading back to do the trainer. What do you think?

I'm still riding. There's lower wind in the forecast. It's muddy right now for Mt. biking. Just let me know if you want to ride.

According to the forecast I saw, it's still supposed to be 20-30mph, so I think I'm heading out to Dominguez Hills.
