JohnV, JohnM - both of your leadership & great camaraderie will be sorely missed. I'm sure, this is going to lead you both back to the Bay Area eventually. Potluck sounds good, maybe we can do after one of the Sunday rides coming up. p.s. Kid can you bring one of your dish specialties, carbon-ated soft drinks:-) cu

johnV said...

Kid Kulaki, I will joining the bike club at ridgecrest www. Highsierracyclists.org while im there so i can be in shape...

johnV said...

JohnM, how about you your leaving pretty soon too. do you want to celebrate together or individual.

johnV said...

my suggested date for the bike ride is may 16 or 17 what do you think guys?????

john_m said...

fearless ride leader... congratulations on the new job. highsierra will benefit from your riding prowesssssssss.

i'm all for celebrating together. can we do it on the 17th? just say where.

A short ride on the 17th if I may suggest. That way, we'll have more time to mingle and enjoy the camaraderie with you guys for one last uhhhhhh, time :(

My .02 - A potluck maybe??? or lunch at Bobs Bamboo Grill.

Rodge said...

I suggest buffet lunch at Bob's Bamboo Grill after the ride. The food are good, mura pa.$9.00 lang. Kung marami tayo siguro kailangan pa reserved tayo. We will need a head count so we will have enough seat. If we will start early like 8am we can be back by 11am enough time for 12 noon lunch.

Rodge said...

Any plan, count in as #1 ;D

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

#2 :)

Well, John V & M, you both got to do what you have to do. Family and career are set of priorities to deal with.May 17, should be a nice day for a good ride.Bamboo grill is good enough for me.

#4 (Madone forgot to count he's #3:)

Bros John V/M, Godspeed! Thanks for the great company. I'm sure we'll cross paths again. Count me in for the chow (1.5). Tentatively, the plan is my little one & I will do the Alameda Creek Trail, then see you @ lunch.

RHAYWARD said...

i should be available for the ride but no the lunch

johnV said...

I got confirm reservation for 20 people at Bobby's Grill!!!!!!

john_m said...

cool... hope everyone can come to the ride or lunch or both. i'm sure bobby will be delighted to host a bunch of hungry sweaty customers :-)thanks johnv for making the reservation.

this is not a farewell ride. as General Macarthur said... "i/we shall return."

Manny D (www.stophhs.com) said...

Sir JohnM, thanks for the reminder on the 'secretive' (a.k.a. secretion) tendencies of the cycling sport, "k-k" power as i remember it referred to in the vernacular. It will be an honor to sweat it out with you guys, John&John, just this one more time. Looking forward, until then, I'll give my Siclista jersey an overnight soak in warm h20, tide powder and a tinge of polo eau de toilette :-) cu JohnV, JohnM!!

Guys, I will be there after the ride. I can't stay long but will be there to have a drink! :)
