This weekend in Monterey, CA

The 4th Annual Monterey Peninsula Vintage Ride brings together fans of classic bicycles for an easygoing group outing. Riders will meet in a Walmart parking lot, with parking encouraged near the gas station side of the lot to keep clear of store traffic. Expect about 47 miles at a conversational pace, with Eddy Magdaleno guiding the group so no one misses a turn. The plan includes a midpoint lunch stop at Pebble Beach Market and the traditional group photo near the eighteenth hole at Pebble. Participation has been growing, with just over sixty cyclists taking part last year. As a bonus, printed event posters created by Frank Grape will be handed out to attendees. Travelers can also look forward to the Classic Rendezvous vintage gathering the following weekend, featuring multiple rides in the Davis and Sacramento areas along with a bike swap and show in Davis, with routes usually mapped by club founder Albert Roldan.
