8AM Start. To Castro Valley, Norris Canyon, Dublin Grade via Schaeffer Ranch, back to CV for coffee stop, home. Why a steel bike ride? Why not?! If you have a steel ride, bring it! Maybe we will affect the position of magnetic North. Carbon, titanium, aluminum...all welcome. But in the spirit of the day, many steel bikes...old, new, between...is too beautiful for words. Steel is what ALL bikes used to be (yes, in my lifetime!). I have 5 bicycles, 4 are steel. I'm not saying that steel is a better ride; I AM SAYING steel is more beautiful.
