Chicks that ride to the bakery....

....or maybe chicks that eat cupcakes?   What a great way to end the summer evening riding season.  From a century ride the previous weekend to a very short ride to a local bakery to try their wares.   Even though it was only 15 minutes until closing, the Layer Cake Bakery www.layercakebakery.com had a selection of yummy goodies for us to enjoy.  I'm not sure that we really burned off enough calories to trade out for what we consumed, but it was fun.

We missed Karen and aren't really sure if she does have a new road bike.  How many of us have really seen it being ridden?   Maybe she can join us for our weekend rides.
Becky had new Breast Cancer Awareness headbands for everyone so we can wear them on the upcoming Trek Breast Cancer Awareness Ride on October 8th.

Theresa handed out glow in the dark lighted bracelets  (chicks really dig jewelry even toy jewelry) to compliment our tail and head lights on our way back the Barranca bike trail to the park for our final goodbye to the season.

Our Saturday ride is planned for 8:00 a.m. meeting at Angel Stadium tunnel 8.   We can practice riding in the headwind down the river trail and maybe get some practice drafting in.  I know there are no hills, but you can pretend the headwind is sort of like a hill.

During the fall/winter season try to get in a ride every weekend even if it's short and perhaps pick up some spin classes during the week.  That will keep you in shape to start out next March without having to go back to square one.


Great season chicks!
