Tuesday Ride Report - Del Dios Loop

I'm going to need more fingers to count the Tuesday Riders: we had a record-breaking ten cyclists today. I'll forgo the full roll call and simply give a nod to Judith from La Mesa and Mike from Ramona: Welcome Aboard, folks.
 
Our route was the oh-so-popular Del Dios Loop, which we seemed to finish in rather quick fashion despite two flats. I guess everyone had their climbing legs today. Or maybe it was just the excellent fall riding weather. In any case, we were soon enough in Escondido and re-fueling at Peterson's Doughnut Shop. Hey, I would have steered us to a health food store for dried tofu crackers and spirulina tea, but it's hard to find parking for ten bikes. 

Next Tuesday we will start at 8:30AM (it's getting colder), and once again it's time for group choice of route...

Time: 8:30AM
Anything Can Happen Day. Group choice for route... Usually easy??

This Saturday's ride will also start at 8:30 (I think I said something different out on the road today.)  We can set up carpools to leave from the RB/Poway area about 7:00AM, which probably means we should shoot for meeting at 6:30AM. Look for an email to discuss carpools...
