Smile Taco Tuesday

A few of us locals will be riding Tuesday nights at Peters Canyon (regularly) and then hitting either Fish House or Chronic after. Start time should be 5-530 parked in the center of Farmers Ranch Market lot (where chronic taco is) and riding out from there. I'm not a speed demon...but I'm sure there will be different levels of riders... if you enjoy Taco Tuesday's...the sunlight is back!!

ARRRGGGHH!
All last fall I worked late on Thursdays, so I always missed the Fully Loop rides. Now I switch to work late on....guess which night! And I can ride to Peters from work!

You people are killing me here!


(maybe I'll just come late for the tacos )

How much of Peters do you do? Madeline has rode most of it and i think she'd really enjoy doing this, You wouldn't have to wait for us, but it would be nice to start out with everyone.

We'll probably do the whole thing...but we socialize at the tops of the hills...(okay I breathe hard). It won't be a big deal to wait for her

The Whole thing? the 8 loop (BIG RED) ? or just those hills I walk up around the lake?

I think i'll try and make this often, with Maddie on her own bike. It'll just make us both stronger!

Ezzyride, Julia12 and I met doing this ride last summer. It's a great (short) mellow after work ride that my daughter Bailey really enjoys. We'll probably cross paths out there. I hope Elvia posts "her" ride, which is a true "No-Drop, No Pressure, Just have fun" ride. It'll probably be closer to summer for us though. We started later, and rode slower, except Julia, She's F-A-S-T!!

sounds like I missed a good one Good thing I didn't come with Maddie in tow, she's got some sort of bug (101 fever). Her teacher said several kids out this week with it. Sure wouldn't want to pass the sickness around.

Ladies, thanks for calling and making sure your weren't gonna leave without me. I'll do my best to make it next week.

5:15 was ideal last night (after we checked up on Tracy)
and it's about 8 miles r/t from the parking lot. As the summer wears on we won't be AS pressed for light, so 530 won't be an issue. We did it in 54 minutes I believe...
