Ride Report: Tour de Scottsdale 2024

April 13, 2024.  An opportunity to visit friends and family in the Phoenix area was also an opportunity to join approximately 3,000 other riders at the annual Tour de Scottsdale. A beautiful metric century route, departing from the WestWorld of Scottsdale event venue at 7:00 a.m. on Saturday morning, April 13.  After a warm-up loop through the McDowell Mountain Ranch area, we then climbed north through North Scottsdale and Desert Highlands, then east through Rio Verde and Fountain Hills, returning on Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd. to complete the loop at WestWorld.  A great ride on a beautiful spring Saturday...Ride On!

Ride Report: Windbreakers Special Edition - Orange County West Loop

January 13, 2024.  An eager bunch gathered on a cold but clear Saturday morning this past weekend at the Anaheim Regional Transportation Center for a beautiful ride through west Orange County.  We started on the Santa Ana River Trail south toward the coast, then north along PCH to Seal Beach for a coffee stop.  Following coffee and a quick cruise along Main Street Seal Beach, we resumed the ride north on the San Gabriel and Coyote Creek trails, before heading west along Ball Road to Downtown Anaheim and the Anaheim Packing House for a lunch consisting of pizzas and great beer from Monkish Brewing. Following lunch we returned to the transportation center, celebrating another great cycling day. 47 miles - Ride On!

Ride On!
