You can be sure there will be riders there of all speeds. RedRex From http://www.sacwheelmen.org/04nov.html WAYNE'S BIRTHDAY RIDE 9:00 AM William Pond Park, At the end of Arden Way in the American River Parkway This is an annual joint ride with the Bike Hikers. Gather at the two benches that are dedicated to Wayne. We will ride up the bike trail and have a break at La Bou located on the corner of Blue Ravine Rd and Folsom Blvd in Folsom. After the break the riders doing the 45-mile ride will continue riding through Granite Bay, Rocklin, etc. The other group will return via the bike trail. John Fraser (Wheelmen), 427-7326 Marvin Philo (Bike Hikers), 363-0482 folsom_rider 11-09-2004, 12:37 PM The Bike Hikers and Wheelmen are great groups for beginners. Another one in the Folsom area is the Folsom Peloton. I post weekly rides for every Saturday. We have all levels of riders, focused on improving skills, and never leave anyone behind. Good luck and let me know if we can help. Cheers, Folsom cdloental78 11-09-2004, 12:50 PM Does Folsom Peloton have a website or online newsletter?

We can be found at www.onlinecycling.com under the rides section. Please forgive me that we have not updated it (I have been buried at work and have family visiting at home), but this should have the ride schedule for November - Feb in the next week. This coming week, we will be meeting at 7:45 and going down the bike trail to Discovery Park. This will not be a fast ride, and you are welcome to just go part way (Goethe Park is a great turn around if you don't want to go the entire way). We meet in the large parking lot across from Bicycles Plus in Folsom. The riders meet at 7:45 and leave at 8am sharp. Look forward to possibly meeting you. Feel free to e-mail me at: folsompeloton@yahoo.com if you have any questions or I can be of any more help. Cheers, Folsom Rider |
