The annual start of Long Ride season, NoHandle's trek to the Solvang Century, is just around the corner. And several other rides are looking for spots on the calendar; Rock Creek Loop by Fro and Hobo'n by Xteric. Time to start logging miles. And no better way to do that than The Full Tuesday Ride (not to be confused with a Complete Tuesday). Currently, five riders have indicated they intend to ride up. That many riders means most will have to ride back. And that's a lot of miles.
An important note to recall from last week: when we strolled into the Hole at 9:30, the taco staff accused us of coming back early. Clearly, the curfew has been extended on our ride bedtime.
Other business, the FT3 Ts drop next week. Attended five rides yet? Better check the past comment fields and make sure.

I'm starting to sound like Rock God. Excuses. I'm out. Have to be in Santa Clara at 0500 tomorrow morning. Work once again driving my wheels more towards or perhaps into the grave.
ReplyDelete2. See you at Knott. Thanks for omitting any reference to last week's gastronomous main course. Bad enough I missed another notch on the post. I'm sure it wasn't the savory, haute cuisine I remember from way back when I used to ride my bike. Did you get the crackers as well? No wait, I don't want to know. Damn my luck🌮🍺
ReplyDeleteTres. Slow train comin' - 2016 debut.
ReplyDeleteWinter is also coming back, enjoy the good conditions while they last. Glad to see you all thoroughly enjoying Chicken Bake. I shall join the punks er I mean ranks again soon.
ReplyDeleteGreat Post NoCar. Be careful, if you keep up such informational posts you may be re-handled as administrative assistant.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I am still very, very bitter about last week's phone-blow-up and the food that is not to be mentioned but was served in my absence. I bet NoCar even got my aces too.
ReplyDeleteAnd...Four.
ReplyDeleteNope, I got the aces.
ReplyDeleteFro and I are in for ride up. Orphan is in for main event.
Riding up from Hidden Valley
ReplyDeleteWhere's that?
DeleteOhhhhhhhhhhh. The shirts are on their way. Will you be getting one next Tuesday?
ReplyDeleteI know a couple who won't!
DeleteAs long as chicken bake is not being served next tues. I should be getting my shirt
DeleteI miss buttons. FT3 taco sessions are missing their facials. 🙄
ReplyDeleteTesting ...
ReplyDeleteLet's dial in the logistics for pedaling up. Where are Newb and 'fro starting from? Town? Should we meet at the usual Mosquito location at 4:27, or perhaps snag Newb at the bike trail below his house? Is XT pedaling from town or from home? Shall we just ride by nocar's house to make snagging him easy?
DeleteIt is 19 miles with 2600' of climbing via Pony Express. Newtown/Starkes is 18.2 miles and 2800' and Plesant Valley/Sly Park is 19.2/2300'. I vote for keeping it simple and just rolling right by nocar's but am up for anything.
DeleteI prefer Carson to Pony Express
DeleteAre we doing the qualifier tonight. How about dropping snows to Starks?
DeleteSnows to Starkes is a great route. Though it might require a few extra minutes.
DeleteIs it time to start riding yet?
ReplyDeleteOut Again - Even better excuse this week. Relatives from out of state here for two days. I know the conditions are awesome, been railing the trails and roads with FT3'ers, just not on FT3.
ReplyDeleteBTW - The official Kit Designers automatically gets T-Shirts regardless of attendance, OR face the possibility of being scorned on the next jersey design. LOL
DeleteHave fun boys. I will show in Q1' 2016.
Read my lips, "No New Excused" - RG, I know first hand you have the fitness.
DeleteWhat is this a Super Tuesday roll up celebration? An FT3 Caucus of sorts?
ReplyDeleteSoooo, Newb/G-fro, where do you want to join the pedaling contingent? Mosquito?
ReplyDeleteBike trail below Newb's house. Just pedal up we'll be waiting on the trail.
