Substitute, or new, Long ride leader needed.......

Previous topic - Next topic
2/7: El Camino, RSF, Del Dios, Elfin, Twin Oaks climb (52 mi, 3600’) 
2/14: Pendleton up to San Clemente (Bring ID) (82 miles, 3900 ft)

2/7 is good candidate for voluntary Double Peak side-route which would come at end of ride.

All- I will lead any/all dates not covered as of this writing. We need to suitcase this so Anthony can comfortably step back an focus on his work and surgery preps.

Anthony- it would seem Nerius has 2/7 and 2/14 under control. Didn't see any correspondence from Ursula in the above string, but I will happily co-lead any/all dates. Please let me know which dates still require a route--I'll deconflict from those already chosen just to keep things lively.

WRT the Pie ride, we'll sort out the details. I'm fine with the standard OCRR start, that said somebody must have the Kit Carson route should the majority want to start from there. If Bill and Nerius want to work it together that is great. Given the length and challenging nature of the ride, it might be best to share responsibility. I figure we'll need some sag support as you indicated, and it is a nice outing for our non-cycling friends/spouses--I mean who would miss out on an opportunity to meet a mess of smelly men for a slice of pie and coffee?

Karl- thanks for volunteering to print up and deliver the ride slips, that will ensure no stress for the substitutes.

Anthony- thanks again for shepherding your cycling flock every Saturday, we all really appreciate it and wish you a speedy recovery!

A great leader leads more by example and less by telling others what to do.

Thanks to all.  I believe weeks I'm out are all covered now unless I out into April. 

As far as the 3/14 ride - I won't be there so you folks can decide where/when to start from.  Nerius - thanks for leading this that day.

Here is what we have so far while I'm out...
1/24 â€" Karl â€" route is listed
1/31 - Ursula - route is listed
2/7 â€" Nerius - El Camino, RSF, Del Dios, Elfin, Twin Oaks climb (52 mi, 3600’) â€" Double peak bonus as optional
http://ridewithgps.com/routes/1378016
2/14 â€" Nerius -  Pendleton up to San Clemente (Bring ID) (82 miles, 3900 ft) 
http://ridewithgps.com/routes/2381594

Nerius â€" look at the route closely, you’ll need to adjust the way back due to road construction.

2/21 - Karl  - Circle R-Dn Couser-Up Rice-Grn Canyon Canyon (59 mi, 4,300’)
http://ridewithgps.com/routes/4848246
2/28 â€" Sean C - need route
3/7 â€" Ursula C need route
3/14 - Nerius â€" Since it is 3.14 a Pie ride will be done.  whether OCRR or Kit Carson park start and time TBD.  Daylight savings starts the week prior so you should be okay in the evening.
3/21 â€" Sean C need route
3/28 â€" Karl - OCRR-Pomerado-56 Path-Coast-Cannon (60 mi, 3,400’)

Thanks,
Anthony

Karl-  Here are my inputs for upcoming rides....
2/28 â€" Sean C - De Luz Classic, OCRR start. Anthony's files only had a Bonsall start--is there an OCRR version? Alternatively, the Nate Harrison via Wolford route would serve.....

3/21 â€" Sean C Twin Oaks-Melrose-Lilac-Miller-Wolford

Thanks, Sean - It looks like Anthony will be covered once we get a note from Ursula for March 7. I'll pull together a classic De Luz starting from OCRR for you. I've got some in my catalog and they might not be on RWGPS, but easily imported.

Frank. You think you're funny. And you are! Haha. There's a special place for you in a certain place in the afterlife which might be on the warm side!!! Hehehe😀

Frank, well what if the blind are leading the sighted.

Last week, by popular demand and due to windy conditions, we bypassed the 395 climb in favor of Live Oak and Green Canyon. Now I note that the original route I volunteered to lead on Feb 21 is just about that same route. Boring... So, on Feb 21, I plan to switch it to the 395 climb, and to change up the beginning a bit, let's do Old Castle instead of Circle R. I'll map it out and make the change on the Roadies page in the next couple days.

Sorry about that - Karl
