Old Wheelmen route: The route is an oldie but goodie from long before the Wheelmen had ever heard of Ride with GPS.
The route is 33 miles with 3050' of climbing. Departing the Raley's parking lot, we'll be riding to Colfax, where you can find restrooms and the Colfax Market. The return will be via Placer Hills and other local roads. Coffee and Pie at Ikeda's, located at 13500 Lincoln Way, just a half mile from our starting point in the Raley's parking lot. 9:30 socialization, 9:45 sign in, 10:00 pedals down. Note: Having access to route navigation is a requirement for these Saturday morning Granite Bay rides. Printed cue sheets and maps are not provided by the ride leader. It's up to each rider to come prepared to ride, including having proper navigation for the route. Thank you for understanding. Also, please be aware of traffic and ride single file to allow traffic to safely pass. Thank you.

PS. For those of you who may be interested in shortening the ride, cross over I 80 at Exit 133 (Canyon Way/Placer Hills Rd) and proceed to Placer Hills Rd, where you will pick up the return route.
