Let's go for Picnic, and Fly a Kite!

 

At our last picnic ride, we chatted about how much fun it is to fly a kite.  So that's what we are doing Sunday May 19th!

Meet at the Piedmont Shop at high noon, and we'll ride down to Berkeley Marina to picnic and fly kites!  If you don't have a kite, well now's the time to get one!

This is all about community and sharing, so bring enough to share for a great afternoon potluck!

This route was inspired by the Bay Area Triple Crossover , and I was going to use that route until I did the pre-ride.  The trails on the eastern side of Lake Chabot are in bad shape, and not a lot of fun.  I am super thankful that Parks is working hard to get them back for us all to use.  So, we will deviate from the original route by taking the trails on the west side of Lake Chabot so we can reach maximum fun! NOTE:  This is an off road bike ride that can be done on a gravel...
