Rides I'd like to do b4 5/23/2009

- Century along the coast. From Half Moon Bay to Santa Cruz.
- Climb Mount Hamilton from the back side.

Both of these rides needs some preparation and training so I am planning to do a recon/training ride of the coast. Maybe HMB to Bonny Doon for a 75 miles out and back ride or a shorter 50-60miles. Another option is to ride and have lunch to where El Capitan and the Pres had their ice cream last time we did the coastal century with my BikeForum buddies. I'm thinking of doing this recon this Sunday then do the full century the next weekend or after the Primavera. Let me know if you guys are up to it.

The training ride for the Mt Ham ride will be from Pleasanton up Mines Road to the Junction. To be followed by the full climb to Mt Ham.
or... we can do the full 116m loop.

Hey Jack,
Is this something to commemorate our great standby Siclista JohnnyM who is leaving on 5/23?

JohnM you know you can still have a change of heart and stay here to hammer us :P

john_m said...

60 laps around jollibee sounds good. we can keep ordering halo halo every 20 laps.

johnnyman... it's hammer time!!!

johnV said...

lets do long steady distance ride this saturday so we can rest sunday,i can make a local ride around our neighborhood for 60+miles.or talk to ceazar he has a good route too.....

Jack Ibagbaga (also known as) Batillog said...

johnv, that sounds good. please lead the ride with the 60+ you have in mind. i have a good one but there is a bit of a climb. from niles to metcalf road in SJ. let me know if you guys want to do this one and we'll set it up. i don't think jomo will be available this weekend so we're good to go on a later time than 7:30.

yowza :):):)

johnm, i don't think laps around JBee is a good idea. an "Angel" might show up to watch us do laps around JBee. lol
not that there's anything wrong with that.

john_m said...

hahahah!. good one jack. we'll start early coz i think that angel watches over JBee after lunch. :))

count me in on Saturday. just say when and where. have to make the most of my last 4-5 weekends with siclistas and maybe get that one last punch at hamilton.
