      Lots of info. Please read. (Sorry for the website text formatting.)

      Please attend the November club meeting for up-to-date details.

      GPX and PDF files are attached.

      We have 17 campers and 3 others staying in nearby hotels. The camp fee is $5/night per person. Friday dinner and Sunday breakfast are included for an optional $15/person. Please let me know if you’re having dinner and what option you’d like. Just know there are no restaurants within 30 miles of the campground. There is a pretty good campsite store with some food and supplies. As of now there are no campfires or BBQ’s allowed in the campground – Bummer! This is a campout. Bring your own plates, utensils, etc.

      Here’s the itinerary:

      KSU, 8:15 am from Panera Bread, La Canada.

      Friday lunch: Fast food in Taft. Everyone is on their own. It’s a major undertaking to feed 20 people in a restaurant so please stick to fast food.

      Friday Dinner: Extraordinary campsite dinner brought to you by Chef Borgeson’s. Choose one of the following:
      Pan fried ribeye steak in butter and olive oil with Monterey seasoning, corn on the cob and BBQ beans.
      or Pan fried salmon filet in butter and olive oil, rice and green beans.
      Bring a bottle of your favorite wine or beverage to share.

      Saturday Breakfast: 30m ride to Flap Jacks, http://flapjackstrespinos.com/breakfast/

      Saturday options: Explore Pinnacles NP. Day hikes in Pinnacles or a day ride to Hollister or both.

      Saturday Lunch: on your own

      Saturday Dinner: Pot luck. Bring something to share. Last year we all brought dehydrated backpacking dinners. As terrible as that sounds they were really tasty. Bring whatever tickles your taste buds. Don’t forget the wine.

      Sunday Breakfast: Fried or scrambled eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon, and OJ. Eat up and get ready to ride home.

      Sunday Lunch: Fast food in Avenal.

      PS, we are driving a van if anyone needs us to bring anything.

        Tony – You probably know this but Salinas is 45m NW of the Pinnacles campgrounds. There are 2 entrances to Pinnacles; One from the East and one from the West and they don’t connect. The campgrounds are on the East side of the park.

        Will you be joining us for dinner on Friday?

              Hi all. We have one group site reserved which holds up to 20 people and 5 vehicles. I think we’ll be ok fitting multiple bikes into 5 parking spots and there is additional parking at the store if they’re strict (there was plenty of parking last year).

              There are 17 of us so far. Pease let me know if someone else is coming that’s not on the list:
              Cindy Borgeson

                Well shoot, I hope the fire danger is reduced by the time we arrive. I was planning on using the campground barbecues. I understand though.

                          Hey Dan Burtt – I’m staying at the Bishop Creekside Inn: http://www.bishopcreeksideinn.com
                          BTW, This is not the same hotel that the club is staying at. I have a room with 2 queen beds if you want to share a room. Total for 2 nights is $322. Half of that would be $161.

                                      To be more precise, there were 4 rooms remaining at the $113 rate. The remaining rooms only have 2 full beds. There are other rooms available at higher rates with King and Queen beds, suites, etc., and they will give us the 10% off those too.
