Breakfast Ride
The donut war is on! Let's show some hella strong support for Stan's. Meet me at 8:00 AM (rolling at 8:15 AM) at the Ponderosa Park restrooms (811 Henderson Ave, Sunnyvale) for a visit to the best donuts in town, prior to Anthony Flores' ride...or meet us at Stan's Donuts around 8:45 AM.
It's only 4.3 miles to Stan's, then 3.3 miles to the Rose Garden. I'm padding the schedule a bit to allow for long stop lights and not being late to the Rose Garden.
If you're driving in from the south, beware of slow rush hour traffic!

New Members Ride
Starting at 10:00 pdt (~3 hrs before solar noon) from Diridon Transit Center, we will head N on Guadalupe River Trail for spectacular sights. This area is very public transit friendly. As usual, if you bring your "sorrisi" (smiles) and "racconti" (stories), we will stop for "spuntini" (snacks). I can adjust my speed to accommodate slower riders. Please bring your tools for any unfortunate events, and check the rides bulletin for any last minute updates. If you think you might be late, call/txt me and I can wait a reasonable amount of time.
