Greetings FFBC Members! It's that time again for the next month's ride calendar.
Changes in the August calendar to note: 1) For the month of August, the Das Brew Rides are scheduled for Friday with the exception of August 31st. This is the 5th Friday of the month and there will be NO DAS BREW RIDE on the 31st. 2) At this time, there will be NO WEDNESDAY Pizza Rides scheduled. They will resume next year June 2019. 3) The pace of Saturday Tour de Fremont Hills Ride (August 11th) has been changed to "M +" to include the faster riders that like this ride. Contact the ride leader if you have any questions. I need ride leaders for the following scheduled rides: 1) August 25th, Saturday : Calaveras CCW 2) August 26th, Sunday : Women's Social Ride If you can lead any of these rides, please let me know. Ride Leaders, please review the calendar and let me know if any corrections or changes need to be made. Thanks. Ride safe, Dennis Dong Ride Coordinator

Castro Valley to Mt. Diablo on Wednesday morning
Tom Erceg
Hey gang I'm planning on doing a non club-related training ride on Wednesday morning from Castro Valley to the top of Mt. Diablo and back. I thought I'd throw it out to the group and see if anyone wanted to join me. I'll be leaving around 8:00 a.m. Please email me directly if you're interested so we don't spam the group. Thanks!

Short Notice Ride: Ride to Pedalfest
David Walker
Pedalfest is in Oakland is this Saturday. I've never been to Pedalfest before, but I know it has bikes (I like bikes), beer (I like beer) and food (I like food). Maybe I'll like Pedalfest then! Join Julia and me for a nice, easy ride to the festivities. We'll start from the Starbucks next to the CVS in Warm Springs (46655 Mission Blvd, Fremont). Meet at 8:30 for an 8:45 start. The ride will be 37 miles with minimal climbing and the pace will be T, M. The (tentative) route is here: They have free bike valet parking but you may still want to bring a lock. Bring some cash for lunch (and beer). After the visit, it is very easy to find your way to BART for a ride home. If I have forgotten to mention something, or you have any questions, let me know.

Ryan Smith
Hey FFBC,
I’m not sure if this is the right venue for this type of question but I was curious if there’s interest in a weekday long and high ride. I work an alternative work schedule that usually means I get 1-2 rides on my off days and they are usually Monday-Wednesday. I like to do 60-100 miles and try to get in 6000-8000ft of elevation gain. I’m usually solo and would love to go as a group but I don’t see group rides that fit this niche. I apologize if this is not the correct method of communication for this type of thing and if there’s a better place for it please point me in the right direction. But even if there are just a few interested I’ll be out on Sierra/Felter/Calaveras road anyway if anyone wants in. Thanks gents and ladies, keep spinning. Best regards, Ryan
