Show up a little early and I will have donuts for everyone! Afterwards if we like we can also have coffee at Cinnamon & Donuts (voted #1 Donut shop in the nation by Yelp a few years ago).
The location is the parking lot just to the right of Rocklin Donuts & Cinnamon at 4845 Granite Drive Suite B in Rocklin. It’s the parking area in-between the donut shop and the The Piano Store, as shown on the Ride With GPS route.
The route meanders up to McBean Park, where we will take a break for water and bathrooms. Perhaps the highlight will be going through Catta Verdura and then on a bike path through Camino Cielo.
The backstory to this is that as a kid in the early seventies, in order for my father to motivate me to wake me up at 5am so we could drive to group rides with the LA Wheelman or AYH, we would first go to the donut shop…..then ice cream as a snack….and then something like McDonald’s after.
I didn’t know how good I had it!
The other reason is that healthy people need an excuse to eat a donut, and free donuts is one of those reasons!
No route sheets provided. If you really intend to print and use a route sheet, I suggest you team up with someone with a Garmin or GPs. Because of the bike paths, route finding will be very difficult since the paths are unmarked.

MIBM PICNIC - GB, Rescue, and Cameron Park 40 Sat, May 2, 8:00am

May is Bike Month is almost here, and it is a good excuse to get out, ride more, and see how many miles we can rack up during the month of May.
There are still a few things that are not completely clear this year, including whether there will be teams and a leaderboard like we have had in the past. But either way, we can still have fun with it and make it a strong month of riding for the club.
Our May is Bike Month kickoff picnic will be on May 2. We will have two routes, followed by a potluck picnic, so please plan on bringing something to share. Please RSVP so we can get a headcount for planning.
