2+/L-T/50 miles with a short option.

Join me and my friends from Valley Spokesman for a really nice fall ride in Escalon. This is touring ride (10-15 mph).

Members, friends and families are invited and welcome to Pam and Steve Gifford’s circa 1854 farm home in the almond and walnut orchards, cornfields and dairy farms of rural Escalon.

Family friendly intermediate ride loops are planned on mostly level terrain totaling fifty miles that may be extended for those wishing to put in more miles.

Soup, Lasagna, wine and soft drinks will be provided.

Please bring salad — OR — dessert — OR — 2 loaves buttered, sliced, French bread to share.

Meet 9:30 am (don’t forget the time change – fall back!)
