November 6, 2021.  The Windbreakers gathered this past weekend for a tour of neighboring Orange County to celebrate the 70th birthday of our very own Tom!

Jim, Joe, Tom, Rick, Craig

Starting at the Anaheim Transportation Center near Anaheim Stadium, our tour took us north on the Santa Ana River Trai before turning south through the Anaheim Hills.  Once over the hills we cycled through Tustin, Irvine, and Laguna Canyon, before turning north on Pacific Coast Highway and the Santa Ana River Trail to return. 


Celebrating at nearby Karl Strauss Brewing


A great ride and a great time.  Ride On!

"Special Edition" 60 for 60 Ride; Happy Birthday Joe!

Happy Birthday Joe!

May 15, 2021. Several of our ranks gathered on a cool, overcast Saturday morning to wish club Co-Founder Joe a happy birthday and ride alongside on a 60 for 60 bicycle ride.  Our route took us on familiar roads west to Monrovia, Sierra Madre and East Pasadena, then a turnaround through Arcadia, Covina, and San Dimas to finish at Butter Cafe in Upland for breakfast burritos, coffee, and Windbreaker Wife Jenny's delicious carrot cake.  We finished with a celebratory hoisting of the glass for some cold beers at Roundin' Third sports bar, next door to Butter.

Happy Birthday Joe, and Ride On!

Cheers to 60 Years!
