Friday, 11/25: Mellow sport touring ride with some spirited sections: :ride
Meet @ Cordelia Starbucks 9am, KSU 9:30am > Napa > Mt Veeder > Howell Mtn Rd > Middletown for lunch > Hwy 29 > Petrified Forest Rd > Spring Mtn Rd > St Helena. Return via your choice: Silverado Trail > Hwy 121 OR Sage Cyn > Monticello > Wooden Vly. :thumbup
Please be ready with snacks, full tank, and tuned equipment inside helmet and under your butt.
This route has a lot of steep, twisty mountain roads. And with recent storms there could be debris on the roadway. And out-of-town tourists (like us). In wine country, possibly drunk out-of-town drivers (not like us). Be careful, and sorry, no newbs.
If weather is iffy, check back to this thread Fri. morning.
We should see some beautiful fall color and autumn light effects. Dress in layers and bask in that turkey-fueled glow!
