Celebrate the arrival of Fall

MEET:---> 8:45 am -- Pleasanton Senior Center
ROLL:----> 9:00 am

**"Summer" is now officially behind us and the Tri-Valley awaits the cool morning rides that defined the arrival of the fall equinox on September 21.

***Pedalers can look forward to the "Fall Apple Harvest" celebration at Alden Lane Nursery -- We will make note of when to expect the arrival of the unique/special varieties from Sonoma/Sebastopol grower, Dave Hale . See pic below!

****The suggested ride this week will be a truly mellow-yellow event with minimal climbing and covering around 25+/- miles or so. **The "word-on-the-street" is that some Pedalers will need a bit more conditioning to comfortably enjoy some of the rides that do some climbing...like on Collier Canyon or Cross Rd.

POSSIBLE ROUTE--->
Senior Center > Laguna CreekTr > Vineyard > Sycamore Grove > Alden Lane Nursery > Vineyard Starbucks > back to Senior Center on Vineyard/Old Vineyard
