Thank you volunteer Training Ride Leaders George Head, Guru Swamy, Ron Marshall, Margaret Simon, Winston Goh, Don Brown, Sam Kimbrel, Pepé Sanchez and SAG, Cami Caudie.

It was a cold'ish morning, but soon warmed up and the layers needed to be removed, especially when one tries to keep up with the Speed Queens. Lady Christine and the Tramps Alf, Sam, Vincent, David, Matt, Eli and Joe. So I'll just call myself a semi-tramp since I'm not a full-fledged tramp. Now those of you who know Alysse, she's definitely a lady (and sometimes a tramp).

We cycled from Orinda to cross over the Carquinez Bridge and then through Vallejo via Lake Herman, a gorgeous ride, and Benecia to cross over the Benecia Bridge. We then whisked through Martinez to Walnut Creek for lunch. I had time to fill my water bottle and take two bites of my peanut butter and walnut, raisin bread sandwich and the Speed Queens were off. What's a senior to do? Jump on his bike and follow.

All-in-all a glorious ride with great people!
