3.28.10 woodside ride

Guy called the 1st ride of the season today in Woodside and certainly hit the mark - beautiful weather, great friends, fine vintage machines. We all met at Woodside school @ 9:30am for a 10am roll out and cruised down Cañada Rd. then down Hwy 92 for a few hundred yards and up 35 to upper Crystal Springs reservoir, over to Polhemus, up hill then over the Hwy 280 pedestrian overpass back to Cañada Rd. with a stop at Robert's Market for take away deli lunches for the Woodside school benches out back by the astroturf soccer field. How many grammer schools do you know that have an astroturf playing field AND tennis courts? They really should install a pool for the poor tykes. Lunch was great as usual and Bradley, Johann, Jan and Peter kept our table laughing the whole time with some great stories. Thought I had taken a pic of Greg eating his salad with a cone wrench but you'll just have to take my word for it. After lunch the bike admiration begins and it's time for goodbyes and the load out. Always hard to say goodbye to such a great crew. Thanks everyone - and thanks, Guy for calling a great ride!
