We sidestepped Hurricane Lee and had a very pleasant ride on Sunday from Wayne. There was a surprising lack of storm debris on the roads, the gravel options were in good shape, and there was a beautiful stretch of smooth new pavement on the descent off Morrison Heights. Plus a stop at Tubby's ice cream in Wayne! Many thanks to Fritz & Susan for leading us! This Saturday we will venture out to Livermore for our traditional Fall apple ride, starting right at the orchard this year, and please note the 10:00 am starting time. Hope you can make it!
