San Carlos Ride
The Peninsula Committee of the SVBC has been conducting "City Rides" to explore San Mateo County city by city. The group rides aim to highlight the successes of each community in supporting cycling for everyday transportation and recreation, as well as to identify trouble spots in need of innovative solutions. Following Mark Eliot's ride around San Mateo last August, and Bob Cronin's tour of Menlo Park in November, Didrik Hoag will be leading a ride through San Carlos this Sat, Jan 24th. The ride will be 12-15 miles at a moderate pace, and we'll stop for lunch afterward. Stay tuned for information on Gladwyn d'Souza's tour of Belmont and Redwood Shores in late February.
