Gold River Town Center Night Ride. Park and start in Bel Air Parking Lot.
F20 - Gold Country to William Pond and back. Due to the heat we will likely take it pretty easy.

Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44714494
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.
We‘ll do a loop through the Clarksburg area and wend our way north to downtown West Sac and this little corner cafe 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 The cuesheet is a bit out of date as the route now incorporates part of the Del Rio Trail, but the differences are minor so it‘ll do until I get around to updating it. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/43899478
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.

Maidu Regional Park. Enter Park, then jog right/left into parking lot to park and start
This ride offers two routes to get to Pause Coffee in Loomis from Maidu Park in Roseville via Rocklin Rd and Del Mar Rd. The routes split and come back together at several locations so that the long route does both climbs on Sierra College and the hills on English Colony Way while the short route stays on rollers to get over to Loomis. Both routes are the same on the return.

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
Note: Registration deadline is 12 hours prior to the ride start.
The route stops in old West Sacramento for a blast from the past, Whitey‘s Jolly Kone. This hamburger/hot dog/fries stand may have opened in 1963 but it‘s got a real ‘40s-‘50s vibe. What make it really stand out are its unusual milkshake flavors, including banana, blackberry, Butterfinger, butterscotch, cherry and peanut butter. There are also sundaes of various types and soft serve cones. Also available are a number of burgers, dogs, burritos, tacos and tostadas and a handful of side dishes. Health food it ain‘t, but the menu will take you back to the days when you could pig out on this stuff and not gain an ounce. This is classified as a lunch ride, but do what you want. During the winter this joint opens at 11 and so the ride starts at 9:30; summer hours begin at 8:30 so the ride leaves at 9 then. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot.

5 Points. Weekdays park Arden Way side away from Arden entrance. Weekends park in rear only.
Easy flat rides out to the Anatolia area to stretch our legs and see what is happening out that way. Routes are the same to mile 15 where those with an itch to see what is out further or just get in a few more miles continue toward Grant Line Rd (but we‘ll opt for a residential street for the western cutover rather than busy Grant Line) and continue to the Anatolia Kavala Ranch Trail. The shorter ride turns toward the rest stop before reaching that trail. After some visiting time, both returns have the same short ride home.

A bit of hills for everyone‘s tastes on the way to Panera‘s at the Palladio.
All three options include Iron Point aka Costco Hill. The 33 miles "More" has ups and downs around lower EDH and options for a few more significant short hill loops along the way as well as Wilson. The "Less" is similar but bypasses those loops and also includes Wilson. The "or Not" opts to not do Wilson and takes the cutoff avoiding some of those ups/and downs and Wilson. All routes return the same way following our stop at Panera‘s
Routes are below and on the club site under my name.
More - 33 miles, ~1800 feet of gain https://ridewithgps.com/routes/51140156

It’s my party and I can have a pancake if I want to!
Join me for a leisurely breakfast ride to Beeks Bight and Susies to celebrate my birthday! Starbucks across from Susie’s is also an option. The plan is to sweep the long route and have breakfast after going to Beeks so short route may not be swept. Of course, it always depends on the weather, if it’s going to be hot, we may all choose the short option.
Susie‘s Granite Bay-1A (C- 30) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/27647605

It’s almost summer, so let’s ride for ice cream to Gunther’s. Voted best ice cream in Sacramento area. Lots of flavors to choose from. Chill factor is excellent. Later start because ice cream served starting at 11 AM. The route has been changed and route link and name with cues coming soon. I rode the previous route this morning and there were several homeless encampments on Twin Rivers BT. The bike trail was in need of repairs near encampments.

AKA "Happy Trails to You," this route vectors southeast through Laguna and Elk Grove along both streets and trails, assumes a heading of 270 degrees enroute to the town of Hood, then follows the river north to finally taxi into the parking area at Sac Executive Airport‘s Aviator‘s restaurant. The last leg before the cafe stop is a long stretch on the river‘s east levee road, which is highly unusual for club rides. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44786772

Northeast corner South Hills Shopping Center near S. Land Park Dr. and 35th Ave.
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.
We'll meet in the Palladio parking lot near Nordstrom Rack (corner of East Bidwell and Broadstone)
You are all invited to join me on a ride around El Dorado Hills. There are two routes, I‘ll be sweeping the long route, but the long route follows all but about 1.5 miles of the short route as well. There are a couple of opportunities to switch routes if you want.
Short route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/42500128 1640 ft climbing
Long route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/43645227 2725 ft climbing
