Reminder:  you must present your membership card to receive the lower price benefit. This is easy to do:

Go to https://northcountycycleclub.org/

Click on "NCCC membership card" link (upper left-hand corner).  You will likely have to log in.

Happy Shopping!

Great post Steve!   They also have a pretty nice Gravel Ride option of 25 or 50 miles.   I have a conflict this year or it would likely be on my ride list.

If you've never ridden in the Big Bear area, it's a nice change from the usual city riding.
And, if you've never ridden the Tour de Big Bear, you've missed the clean air, scenic mountain
routes, great food stops, and a fun time. This year, NCCC has a group discount (10%), so the
first ten peeps who are ready to register get them (mailto:nc3pres@northcountycycleclub.org and please
no sharing of the code via social media. Requests have to go through me). We will
also contend with other groups for the "Craig's Crown Award," which gives prominent recognition
to the club with the greatest number of riding members.

Dates:  August 1-3, 2025. Come for the day or weekend (ride = Saturday)
Ride options:  25/50/75/100 miles; e-bike/gravel/mtn. bike options.
Registration:  https://tourdebigbear.com/overview/ (when you get to the registration #2 team area, don't forget to "join a team" and click on NCCC)

Hope to see you there!

Quote from: Norval Lyon on January 22, 2019, 01:40:31 PMGreat video. Frightening just watching it. I rode Highland Valley / Archie Moore  to Poway Road on 67 soem months ago (southbound) and decided against it for a cruiser ride...

The video link in the pdf is obsolete if anyone picks this up now. It is also an unlisted video on Youtube - https://youtu.be/b4FHsBsSoKQ Related documentation can be found in the shared folder at https://bit.ly/hw67_issues. In addition to the 10 minute video, hwy67_presentation.mp4, there are
1. Highway67 Issues.pptx - Presentation given to Caltrans Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (video clips embedded from the lower resolution hwy67_presentation_display.mp4)
2. 2019-01-15 Hwy67_Conditions_Notice.pdf - Notice of hazardous conditions sent formally

I'm going to cancel, wet roads and the drizzle continues here in Carlsbad. Rain chances and wind increase later this morning.

I will go to the start anyway, just to catch stragglers.

I'm going to make the call by 7:30 am tomorrow morning and post here. If roads are wet and not drying out then I will cancel.

No saving legs for this route as Sunday's ride has been cancelled
Saturday ride can be made a little longer ✌️
My 🪙🪙's

Was the website built by a middle-school kid looking for an extra-credit project? There are some serious bugs on it! I hope the project is better designed...

The route for this Saturday has been changed to a completely different route, so
if you downloaded the route prior to today, 3-3-25, please download the new route.
The ride is now called "Vista, Bonsall, and Sleeping Indian." 41/2600.  Hope to see
you there. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/26022786
