This program concludes on October 31 so the goal now is increasing the miles students can ride.
Crossing the American River and headed to Sac State.
About 21 miles. Everyone did great.
Velo Lancers
Thursday at Merrilyn’s
Bacon jalapeño quesadillas with guacamole and sour cream and Artichoke dip with crackers. And wine and great conversation.
Volleyball
The season is almost over. Tonight was the last home game and Senior Night.
And then .. surprise .. Sophia and a teammate sang the national anthem.
Sophia is one of the team captains and student body president.
Earn a bike
Jibe needed a last-minute substitute for an LCI (League Cycling Instructor) for the final night of Earn a Bike, a Jibe program that rewards participants, after they complete eight hours of bicycle driver education, with a sizable monetary reward to be used toward a new bike or bicycle-related supplies. We met at the bike tech classroom at Inderkum HS at 5:00.
Kathy was the lead. I rode mid-group. Becky rode sweep.
Great program in the N Natomas community. Fun to be able to help out at the last minute.
Coffee with friends
Adrienne, Linda, and Kathy. Always fun to catch up and we talked about an upcoming trip we are going to take.
Soccer
at St Ignatius.
Learn 2 Ride
at Miller Park with Kathy and Joel. This is such a fun class to teach. One person started pedaling right away, she just needed to remember. I pulled her from the group and we went for a longer ride. As we rode all of Miller Park and around the block on Ramp Way, Front St and Broadway, I taught her lane positioning, hand signals, shifting, proper turns. Totally fun Level 2 lesson.
Walnuts
I love driving out to Justin’s to complete whatever the next task is. Justin gathered the rest of the walnuts from last weekend, watered, and weed-eated. I started with this
and finished with this.
And the first two brown grocery bags of this year’s harvest were taken home.
Volleyball
Christian Brothers played at Inderkum HS, which is very close to where I live.
Friends from high school: Thais, Kristen, Sherry, Danielle – what a nice surprise.
