Ride Description and Notes:

Please join me on Sunday for a ride up from
Rollins Lake to Alta, Drum Powerhouse and Casa Loma. Best to stop for coffee and
restrooms in Colfax prior to arriving at the start.

The route starts at Rollins Lake as the parking
at the historic train depot in Colfax is now limited. Short ride up Norton
toward Colfax then back down to start up the Norton Grade climb. Reach Dutch
Flat at 12 miles then out toward the powerhouse gate or turn around before the
decent. Arrive at the Alta Store around mile 25. Out/back on Casa Loma then
roll back down. 43 miles with 4,400 feet of uphill. This route includes twin
spurs to Drum Powerhouse and Casa Loma with stores available so bring a little
cash. Tall trees and trains also. This is an easy route to shorten up by
skipping portions of the spurs.

 Printed route sheets, parking, and gels
available at the start.

No drop, casual paced rides with multiple regroups. Because of our foothill setting the rides are rolling to hilly, and have between 1000 to 2000 ft of climbing in each ride. If you've been riding in the flats and want to experience the foothills, this will be a good ride to join. Because of the climbing, I do not consider these beginner rides. We meet afterward for coffee and chatter.

Where: Flower Farm Cafe, 9280 Horseshoe Bar Rd, Loomis, CA 95650, USA (map)

All pace ride.  Riders ride at their own pace or form groups riding a similar pace.  Often times, there are no regroups due to the short distances offered.  Approximately 25 miles. No sweep.  
Parking at the Flower Farm should not be in front of the Cafe but in the gravel parking lot toward the back.  
Coffee and conversation afterwards at the Flower Farm Cafe.

Our Sunday rides are at least 40 miles in length, giving moderate level riders the chance to ride a little further than our average distance. You'll find some rides that are flattish and some that are killer hilly. The average pace of the Sunday rides varies hugely based on the distance and the amount of climb. The start location of this ride varies weekly, so check the calendar.

Where: Newcastle Park and Ride, Newcastle, ca (map)

Tuesday rides are variable, depending on who leads and who shows up. The ride will breakup into a few groups.

Generally, the climbing is kept under 2000 feet (usually even less), and the distance is 20-25 miles. There are 1–2 regroups. This ride's start location currently starts at the Newcastle Park & Ride.
