For those of you bummed because the rain bagged your Saturday long ride, Kathy and I are planning to ride the tandem from the Joshua Tree Visitor's center (corner of Highway 63 and Park Drive in Joshua Tree) to Keys View overlook this Thursday Nov 6 at 4:30 PM. Moonrise is at 5:00. A group of us did this awesome ride last year and it is special. The climb is a reasonable 2500' in 21 miles to the top of the ridge overlooking the Cochilla Valley. The lack of traffic and the full moon allows you to do most of the climb without lights. The RT should take about 3 hours and we will celebrate with a beer and burger at the JT Saloon before driving home. If you are interested in joining us please respond and I will send directions. rhardy10@verizon.net
