Tomorrow's the Day! Last Pre-Ride Update.

Well it is 2am on Friday morning! The ride for us is 1 day and 7 1/2 hours from now. I thought I'd give a last update.

We are presently both an informal team of 5 and a formal team of  5! lol Saturday morning at 9:30am 5 riders should be rolling away from our home to accomplish a 25 mile ride around Rohnert Park/Cotati, and separately there are 5 registered team members actively fundraising (https://secure2.convio.net/fara/site/TR/Events/General?team_id=4411&pg=team&fr_id=1633).

There are two routes we have mapped. Tomorrow we'll need to choose which one.
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/32798726 runs Snyder Lane to Petaluma Hill Rd and back to Todd Rd and around (25.2 miles), while
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/32801159 runs from SSU to the Smart Train bike path, North to Golf Course then further North to Todd Rd. and around (24.8 miles).

Oh, did I mention Saturday's chance of rain is about 75% right now? Yep. Yesterday it was 91% so it's lookin' better!

The organizer Kyle Bryant said he wanted us to do a "challenge" ride. On a personal note I'll be riding on my 75th BD using a completely unconditioned body and a 40 year old Schwinn road bike for 25 miles in the rain. I ask, should I pray for rain, Kyle?! lol It will be fun and I've been wet before. The pic to the right was part of the 2 1/2 days of rain of the 4 day Portland to Seattle Ride Ataxia. THAT was wet!

Team Blue Skies is at $3100 and the overall NorCal total sits at $73,105 right now! Whoo-Hoo! And there's still time to join in! Go to our link above!
