The forecasts seem to be converging on agreement: Rain will be moving into the area late Saturday. The only question is over the timing -- whether we can finish our 63-mile ride in time. As of tonight, it's looking favorable for us, so I'm going ahead with the advertised route at the advertised time. (Don't forget -- we meet one hour earlier this week!)
If you're a little skittish over doing a metric century, or if you're just worried about the weather, there's an unofficial bailout point on the ride. At about mile 52, you can hop on VTA light rail all the way back to Mountain View. It's a very slow trip (you might be able to bike it faster ... really!), and there's a transfer involved, but the option is available if you just can't go another mile or if the weather turns really bad. Bring $1.75 cash for the fare.
So sign up and join us this Saturday! Ride info and RSVP are available here.
