Mosquito Ridge and a burger chaser... Saturday 7/30

[CromoMann]

********UPDATED WITH DETAILS*****************

I think there's some interest in a ride and burger meat-up.
Let's work up an appetite with a morning ride and have lunch at one of the Squeeze-Inns around town.

We will meet Saturday morning and try to beat the heat.  The ride starts at "Bella Brew" in El Dorado Hills at around 7:45 - for a departure at 8am, (BB is located in a stripmall just North-East of Hwy 50 and the El Dorado Hills exit 3941 Park Dr # 70, El Dorado Hills, CA, 95762).

- we will then use the following route:


and artery clogging goodness ensues.

Any other questions/concerns?

Sounds good. Looks like both days are going to be equally warm so I'm up for either. The Squeeze Inn in Roseville is going to be the closest at the end of the ride or on Power Inn, depending if you come back 49 to Salmon Falls to 50 for a little extra twisty ride time.

I think I'll make my vote for Saturday with Sunday as the backup option.

[CromoMann]

okay... sending PMs to recent-posters in the Central Cal Monsters area...

[Sachica]

Saturday or Sunday works for me. Since there is already a vote for Saturday, I'll second that. I've never ridden Mosquito Ridge but it sounds good.

Won't be able to make it this weekend.  Maybe next time.

Sounds fun but I work most weekends.    I really need to get some new riding pants too so I can have proper gear.  Maybe next time.

Thanks for the PM cromo

[CromoMann]

I sent PMs to a couple others - if we don't hear about any strong aversions to Saturday - we'll make it official tomorrow.

Check back later.

Thanks MD - That's exactly what I had in mind.  We can see how we're doing on time.  If we don't reach French Meadows Res. - then we can probably look to turn back around 10:30-11am.  

I'll modify th original post with the route and meetup times...

[MetalDuc]

I suspect we won't reach French Meadows but I had the same plan to turn around at some point along the way depending on time.

8am launch from BB is perfect and gas is available at this location to start off with a full tank. At least one more fill up will be required along the way.

See you there!
