CYCLING JOURNAL: 81.17 MILES 2/26/2020 & A AWESOME RIDE AROUND THE SUTTER BUTTES

What a awesome day to be out on a bike with two great biking buddies.

You could not ask for better weather and some of the trees were in full bloom.

Meeting up with Jenni and Janelle.
This was the official last ride with Janelle. :(   This was our last time seeing her.   So riding around the buttes make saying good bye extra special. I won't forget this ride.

Jenni doing pre-stretches before the ride.

One of Jennies photos from the ride.

So here we are out on a dirt road. GPS took us to a unpaved road. LOL It got us there.

We made it.
Paula and Russ Sunn ready to roll. They were with the Corsa Cycling Club.

Lot's of people from lot's of clubs.
North Valley Ride Group
WOW
Chico Corsa Cycling Club, who hosted the ride.

Well were almost off. We had to pay a parking fee to the parking lot, which was 2 miles away. There was no sign that said you had to pay and there were no directions. The only way we found out was I saw a lady taking license plate numbers.

Gray Lodge is a beautiful park.

Grumble grumble.

Some body left money in a envelope out in the open, whoops, so we put it in the slot.

Headed back to the parking lot, to put the tags on the cars.

Some of the Chico Corsa Club waiting to take off.

Sarah volunteering as Sag.

Lot's of people ready to roll.

We headed out with some of them and then they regrouped with there riders.

This guy documented me on the ride. LOL Usually I'm the one taking photos not the one being taking photo of. LOL

Lot's of tandem bike were in the group.

By our selves now.

Tiny tractors.

Headed back out.

This is not a real zebra it's a Zonkey! Not joking.

Lamas, sheep, goat, mini horses, hell they got every thing.

The hills looked so soft.
Just before this shot a friend of mine on I love Cycling VIP passed and yelled out my name. LOL I head her, but it was like deer caught in the head lights. LOL
