Pedaler Hosts will do their best to accurately (and appropriately) use adjectives like "mellow...affable" when describing the weekly Thursday rides."

************Pedaler Route---> posted Tuesday.
An 'easy-peasy' ride of recovery for those Pedalers that competed the Cinderella Ride or the Primavera Ride. The Pedaler Social ride anticipated route will leave Ernie Rodrigues Softball Field and follow Tesla to Mines Road and the DelValle split. Returning to Tesla and travel east to the "Ideal Boat/Camper Storage Yard". With some help from the 'kitchen elf' we might spot the phantom elephant. Returning to Tesla and take note of the Dinosaur guarding the Concannon Winery Gate!
Ride will finish with a quick stop at Saeachao Farms Fruit Stand (just .25 mile from Ernie Rodrigues Softball Park.) They have the Albion and the Chandler variety strawberries.

**This will be a Spring ride — a genuine Spring ride—celebrating genuine TriValley Spring weather!
*******water bottle contents aside, the mysterious TriValley elephant & the Concannon 🦖 will not make an appearance this week.
****This week's ride will be a mellow tune up for the 50th Cinderella Classic Bike ride on April 11.
***** Lady Whistledown has recently posted concerns that, in some circles, a "mellow ride" should be considered oxymoronically "manic or intense."
