*******Will the Pedalers want to celebrate the "end-of-summer" with a quick stop at Meadowlark Dairy???

****It appears that the Pedalers will miss the high temp antics from MoNature. Temps were very warm Su-M-T-W this week (90's), but a definitive cool down will greet us Thursday morning. Expect cloud overcast gradually retreating to the west and temps warming to the upper 70's and low 80's by noonish.

**Ride "sweep" will facilitate keeping all on course. Ride will re-group as necessary. Cycling etiquette essential. Pleasanton Senior Center open - bathrooms & water available also at Cayetano Park.
Attendees are limited to 30 who have signed for the ride in advance. Please be sure to bring your helmet, water and a spare tube. No SAG cars provided.
