Anyone familiar with Husick‘s Taproom knows that it periodically changes ownership and closes for a time. It was shuttered for part of 2024 but reopened in mid-Sept. The new menu includes pizzas, salads, sandwiches and a variety of upscale dishes. Most importantly, there‘s still decent beer on draft. This is an easy route of moderate length that travels familiar roads in the Greenhaven/Pocket and Clarksburg areas, and starts relatively late to accommodate Husick‘s opening time of noon. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44796871
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.

This is a moderate ride with both trails and roads going into EDH up Green Valley. I plan to sweep but usually I‘m in the back anyway.
As of today, there is no rain showing for Friday until 4pm. Lets hope it stays that way.

Gold River Town Center. Park and start across from Rite Aid near the Sunrise side of the parking lot
Short Description 20 mile riders will stop at Wm Pond Park before the return to Gold River. Those wanting a longer ride will turn around at Guy West Bridge. Lunch options after the ride.
On this route you *can* have your druthers--Druthers Coffee Shop, that is. This relatively new corner spot in the Sutter Park housing development is small and spartan, but there‘s a bit of patio seating outside and a beautifully landscaped commons-type park across the street with benches. Offerings include the typical coffee selections plus chai, and a very atypical sweet potato waffle in three varieties--plain, peaches & cream and coffee cake--plus occasional seasonal variations such as pear. The route traverses the downtown grid and McKinley Village before looping around the top side of East Sac, and returns via Elmhurst, North Oak Park, Curtis Park and Land Park. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44913264

I will update Friday morning if weather cancels.
We‘ll do a loop through the Clarksburg area and wend our way north to downtown West Sac and this little corner café that features plein air seating amid a variety of fruit trees. The cuesheet is a bit out of date as the route now incorporates part of the Del Rio Trail, but the differences are minor so it‘ll do until I get around to updating it. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/43899478
Northwest corner of parking lot next to Steady Eddy’s near Railroad Ave. and Abbey St. in Winters.
This ride is my Bakery to Brewery ride that goes to the Pure Grain Bakery in downtown Vacaville and returns a different route to Winters for an optional refreshment at Hooby’s Brewing in Winters, but hopefully this time the almond trees will be in bloom. Cantelow Rd is open again, so the long route will go in the usual clockwise direction (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41429096). The distance is about 44 miles with 2,000 ft climbing. The short route has not changed and goes around the English Hills in a clockwise direction staying on the lower rollers in the English Hills. It’s 36 miles with about 1000 ft climbing (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41429095). The two routes split at Steiger Hill and Cantelow Rds. The climbs up Cantelow Rd on the long route are up and back to the top from both sides, so you can just turn around if it becomes too difficult. Also, if you want you can do both climbs on Cantelow Rd before the rest stop by continuing on after climbing to the top and then turn around at Pleasant Valley Rd at the bottom.
Palladio parking lot, corner of East Bidwell and Broadstone in Folsom by Nordstrom Rack.
Join me for a ride around El Dorado Hills with a break at Starbucks on Green Valley Road. There are two routes, 30 and 40 miles. I will be sweeping the long ride. There are opportunities to switch routes at mile 15.1 and after the break if you took on too much or too little. I will park near Broadstone but away from East Bidwell.
30 mile Route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/42500128
40 mile Route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/43645227
We‘ll traverse Land Park, Old Sac, Discovery Park and the suburban streets of Natomas on this route that stops at the Bella Bru in the Natomas Park shopping center near Del Paso Rd. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44503726
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.

From Barrio we head to posh East Sac and swing through somewhat less-posh Oak Park before making a pit stop at Freeport Bakery (or Marie‘s Donuts if preferred) and wending our way back to Greenhaven via the Pocket. A moderate pace suitable for less-energetic boppers is expected. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/40704517
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.
DE VINCI'S DELICATESSEN & CATERING

Northeast corner of South Hills Shopping Center near 35th Ave and South Land Park Dr.
Come join me on this easy flat ride out to Lenise’s Cafe in West Sacramento. All routes will be taking the new Del Rio bike trail down to Freeport. There are short and long gravel and road routes. Both gravel routes get on the levees along the Sacramento River and the deep water channel. These gravel routes are still mostly paved, so gravel or cyclocross bikes are best, but a mountain bike may work if you’re fast.
Gravel, short: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46794611
Gravel, long: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46794698
Short and long routes for road bikes are still an option.
Road, short: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46794778
Road, long: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46794841
The short and long routes separate after crossing the Freeport Bridge. The short routes turn right on South River Rd and head towards West Sacramento, with the gravel route staying on the levee when it turns to gravel. The long routes turn left on South River Rd. and then right on either Pumphouse Rd. (gravel) or Willow Point Rd. (road) before heading back to West Sacramento. After Lenise’s Cafe the routes separate again with the gravel routes getting on the levee along the deep water channel and the road routes staying on the streets. All the routes come together on South River Rd at the end of Village Parkway and then cross over the Tower Bridge and return through Land Park getting on the north end of the Del Rio bike trail by Riverside Blvd and taking it down to 35th Ave. I will sweep the short gravel route. If you plan to do one of the other routes I recommend that you ride with someone.
A short, flat spin takes us on a rough figure-eight route through Land Park, the Central Grid and East Sac on the way to the cafe stop at 24th St. and 2nd Ave. in northwest Curtis Park. Most streets will be familiar but we‘ll be traveling many in the opposite direction. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44787171
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.

Start at 10:00 AM. The ride is a loop with no mid-point stop, but optional lunch at Dos Coyotes or (?) after the ride. Route: *FRA ER GN 24 Trail, https://ridewithgps.com/routes/36027835, 24 miles, 1200 feet of climbing. In the tradition of Folsom Roundabout, you can ride from House of Mules to the Fish Hatchery and back before or after the core ride and record 31 miles. There is no route sheet for this additional loop. More loops may be added at the discretion of the Ride Leader.
Ostensibly named after the nearby Tallac Village neighborhood, today‘s destination at 60th St. and 14th Ave. is actually in the Tahoe Park area just to the north. Village Drive In is one of three old-school roadside diners within easy riding distance of Barrio (the others being East Sac‘s Cookie‘s Drive In and Whitey‘s Jolly Kone in old West Sac). All offer similar fare that‘s neither a gourmet nor a particularly healthful throwback to the days when nobody on this side of the Pacific even heard of tofu. In addition to the typical shakes and burgers, it‘s rumored that Village offers some vegetarian options, although I could not confirm this. But who goes there for brussels sprouts anyway? Since the drive in opens at 11, the ride leaves at 10. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45578293
