      We did an evening ride last year (thanks, Ralf), and I would like to do another.

      I couldn’t find a full moon on a Friday or Saturday in July, so picked Friday, July 22. We can meet in Lake Elsinore at the intersection of Grand and Ortega at 8 p.m. I’ll have a ride to a place for ice cream/dessert. Looking at 1.5 to 2 hours each way (from Lake Elsinore).

      (I changed this to the following Friday due to the Ride to Live Training 7/16)

          Very nice John, and you can talk it up at the picnic one week before.

            Some major changes: Leave Lake Elsinore at 7:30 pm and ride to Palm Desert and the Cheesecake Factory (if anyone has another idea for the stop in Palm Desert area, let me know).

            The route is 179 miles from Lake Elsinore to Palm Desert and back, and as this is a special-type ride, miles will be doubled for submission.

            If you want to ride, please sign up on the Ride List.

            Here is the Tyre file and PDF:

              See you at Lake Elsinore.

              Is there .gpx or .gdb file?

                Well, since this IS a Dessert Ride, and we only eat dessert after a good dinner…….anyone interested in grabbing a bite in around the West End of Ortega Hwy???

                  I know exactly which dessert I want. I ate dinner at Chesecake Factory last night on Hwy 111 here in Palm Desert. Staying here for couple of nights. Funny when I told my wife that I’ll be coming back again day after, she said, why don’t we stay an extra night so you won’t have to come back. Yeah, but! Missing components are my motorcycle and company of my friends. LOLs.

                      Karl – I don’t know if I can make it in time for dinner. I won’t get on the road until 5:30 or 6:00. I’m livin’ the dream but I still have to work.

                      What time are people heading out from OC? Anyone want to ride out together?

                              Well, I must have missed you guys, I rode right past that intersection without knowing it. Rode to the other end of Ortega and then back in the dark, when I realized where Grand and Ortega was at. I would have liked to gone on the ride. Maybe next time.

                                Sorry about that, Jessie! We did have a good ride. Our phone numbers are on the ride list, should you want to update one of us. Also, the start point is on the calendar, with Google Maps. Next time!
                                And, thanks to the five of us who braved the heat and dark and (too much) dessert!

                                Bonus miles for this first mileage ride of the 2016-2017 ride year.
