Sat. Sept. 4th our ride @ 8:00am
 
Bike Buddies Cycling Club is the result of two groups of riders and friends merging together with a goal to advance participation in cycling and cycling related activities.  Though we are a licensed United States Cycling Federation club, most of our riders have never raced, nor will they!  Some did not even start to ride a bike until well into their adult lives.  We welcome all skill levels of riding from someone who has never been on a group ride to professional cyclists.  Some members race on the road, some in a velodrome, some are mountain bike racers, some are ultra distance riders, and finally some just like to go out and ride with their friends every Saturday.  Everyone will benefit, have fun, and maybe learn a thing or two about cycling and how to be better.  In the end, we have two main objectives and they are to increase participation in the sport of cycling at any level and to improve our local community.  If either of these objectives sound like something you would be interested in being involved with, come on out and ride with us!

What has our group accomplished?


We have maintained a 2 mile stretch of Willow Glen Road th
Hey Gang,  This Saturday we have two ride opportunities.  For any of you that signed up to be a course monitor, we'll me at 9:30am for a pre-ride of the route in reverse at the Ferry landing on the Broadway pier (see Andy Hamshaw info below). this will be fun and informative ride.  Please rsvp Andy at his email address below.  For those not wanting to ride the Bay, it will be the usual ride starting at 8am in front of Ralphs. It will be hot so dress light and bring two water bottles.  After the ride its Coffee and Bagels at the Grounds, before as many friends and Bike Buddies as possible can give us 30 minutes of  time to help get Brad and Heathers gazebo up and in place.  It weights 250+ lbs so we desperately need 8 people to lift and 3 or 4 to put the post in place. Their address is below and it is less than 3 miles to their house from the Coffee Grounds. Thanks in advance for all of your help!
rough the San Diego County Adopt a road program since 2003.  We meet every quarter, go for a short ride then begin our road cleanup.


 
What our Bike Buddies?
 
Well, we have two California Triple Crown riders (3 200 mile rides in the same year).  An Everest Challenge winner, Alpine challenge winner, several riders who do a minimum of 1 century a month. And a bunch of people that are happy getting to the bridge and back each weekend! Somehow it all works and we all ride together and have a good time.

Hey Gang,  This Saturday its going to be feel like Summer.  Saturdays high will be in the low 90's with our ride beginning in the mid 70's.  Carry two bottles if you going over the top of Dehesa.   let's meet in front of Ralphs at 8 am and head up the road.  After the ride its Coffee and Bagels at the Grounds. 
 
Last Sunday's Bike the Bay was a magnificent success.  Bill Riggs did a stellar job organizing the plan for our monitor positions. We took some great Pictures at the top of the Bridge and helped many riders with flats and minor problems.  With over 2300 riders it was nearly a flawless event with only one injury requiring help from the Paramedics.  I'll be posting them on the our internet site tonight.
 
See you Saturday,
