Fwd: Swift Cycling Adopt A Road Cleanup THIS SATURDAY, 11/1, 10 AM

For Saturday, 11/1/2008
Hello Fellow Swifties,
 
It's that time again to go clean up our stretch of Nelson Road.  Let's meet at Vic's at 10 am and carpool from there.  Or meet us out there at 63rd and Nelson, if you are going separately.  We have had great turnout the last couple of times..let's do it again.  More hands makes it more fun and less work!  For those of you who have not done this before, come on out!  It's part of what makes Swift a unique club...community service.  Great way to get to know other riders that you may not have had a chance to really talk to before.  It takes one to two hours max.  The City requires us to have each watched their video on trash and safety.  Please do this before Saturday.  Go to http://www.bouldercounty.org/transportation/adopt_a_road.htm  and at the bottom of that page is a section called Links.  There are two videos you need to watch..one on safety and one on meth lab recognition. 
 
I will be bringing waiver forms as required by the city for everyone to sign. Please RSVP so I can be sure to bring enough.

 

Thanks for all you do,

Jenny

Ronde de Bergs
1:30 pm
Meet at Cafe Sole

Saturday MTB ride - Walker Ranch/Super Walker

I am going to ride up to Walker Ranch on Saturday morning. My plan is to leave my house at about 7:30, be at the base of Flagstaff at about 7:45, and be at the Walker Ranch parking lot at about 9:00. I will ride out to the walking section and depending on my mental state (I hate walking down the stairs), I will will either continue on around or do an out and back to the parking lot, and then back home over Flagstaff. If I am feeling feisty, and I have the time, I might ride on over 68J up to Magnolia and back down that way - this would be the "Super Duper Walker Ranch" option.

Feel free to meet me at any of those points to ride if you would like.

Steve

Sunday, 10/19, Ride at 9:00 am

Sunday, 10/19, we will leave Vics (IRIS & 30th) at 9:00.  Doing a 'casual' pace to Lefthand Canyon to Ward.  Bring some warm gloves and jacket for decent back down...

Friday MTB Ride

Ken and I are going to do Hall Ranch and maybe some of Picture Rock on Friday
Meet at Lyon's Visitor Center at 1:00 pm - I can carpool with somebody from Boulder if needed...

Lyon's visitor center works fine.  I'll try to park on Railroad Street which is on the south side of the green that surrounds the visitor center.  The skate park on Railroad has some parking too.
