Saturday - EZ Rider Penryn Itchy 21 miler Sat, Aug 22, 8:00am 0 comments
Ride Description and Notes: A Little More Mileage, Still EZ!
This week we're heading out on a 21.6-mile loop through the Loomis area. You asked for more miles, and this route delivers without piling on a ton of climbing—just about 1,000 feet of elevation gain. Expect mostly rolling terrain, quiet roads, and plenty of beautiful foothill scenery as we wind our way around Loomis and the surrounding area. It's a great choice for riders looking to stretch their legs and build some endurance while keeping things comfortably EZ.
More miles, less suffering—that's the EZ Riders way! 🚴♀️😊

Where: Newcastle Park and Ride Newcastle, CA (map)
Tuesday rides are variable, depending on who leads and who shows up. Generally, the climbing is 1500-2500 feet, and the distance is 18-25 miles. Oftentimes, there are no regroups due to the short distances offered. This ride's start location is currently at the Newcastle Park & Ride.
Coffee and conversation afterward at Newcastle Produce.
Wednesday rides are the most aggressive rides of the week (26-40 miles) and are fairly hilly. Currently, this ride usually starts out of Meadow Vista Park in Meadow Vista. However, always check the calendar for a different start location.
Ride Description and Notes: Break from tradition for last Thursday of the month, with ride starting at Holiday Market near Lake of the Pines. Enjoy the low-traffic roads West of the start on Wolf and Garden Bar, as well as the Darkhorse Loop ("the fun way"). Lots of Regroup stops plus a Regroup/Bathroom stop at Sta

Friday - Railhead to Railhead Loop_08_28_26 Fri, Aug 28, 8:00am 0 comments
Riders, let's wind down August by heading up to Railhead Park for the final Friday ride of the month. We'll get the benefit of the elevation drop over the first part of the ride but will have to do a little work getting back. We'll shoot down Shirland Tract/Rattlesnake Road to the lake for our first regroup just shy of the eight mile mark. After a climb up from the lake we'll head down AF to DC to VV then back up to Penryn. We'll do a second regroup at the Griffith Quarry Museum parking lot near the corner of Taylor and Rock Springs. Shortly thereafter we will start the slow crawl back up to the start via Newcastle Road and Indian Springs.
Please stay hydrated! The ride will not be formally swept. After ride coffee location TBD.
