    Open to anyone on a bike.

    There will be beer. Being a road ride this is for those who want to pound pavement before they pound beers. I have wanted to do the Path's Bikes and Beers ride too. This ride has been postponed twice and I fear once more and it wont happen. I agree, Sunday is not ideal, but the following Sunday is Mother's Day. . .

    Wont be the same without you. Hit me up and we can meet to ride some of our old haunts.

    Prefer 35-40 or 70 mile option? Finish the legs off right. Meet in Menifee for a 8:00 am start. It's on the calendar.

    36 mile option with food/beer in Riverside and I need 1 volunteer to help shuttle.

    70 mile loop option with majority of climbing on back half, food/beer at Beer Hunter in Menifee.

    Wut!? I'm not a road rider, but that seems like fun. Perris - Rubidoux... took me a while to get that one. :lol:

    Dirt paths around Lake Perris would add some better cobble ride quality than those pavers, especially in the areas that sees horse traffic. :-k

    Anxious to hear the RR. I wish I could've joined in the festivities and shenanigans. Definitely next year for sure!
    What about calling it the Perris-Roubaixdoux in the future?? What do you think Albatross??
