I was tasked by SABA to organize the next couple of social rides. For November, I decided on a tour of Sacramento’s kinda-famous alleys with names chosen to reflect the city and its history: Blues .. Victorian – in alphabetical order. Today BarbaraL and I did pre-ride based on a route I created using Ride w GPS. We started at Old Soul Co in Liestal Alley. Liestal Switzerland is one of Sacramento’s sister cities.
Rice Alley has been recently renovated.
Old Sacramento is getting ready for the Christmas season.
Next came Firehouse Alley (one section closed, another filled with construction or delivery vehicles – this is why you do a pre-ride). On to Improv Alley, Fat Alley, Eggplant Alley, Democracy Alley, Chinatown Alley (several blocks are not paved). The end of the ride will be at Cantina Alley which is the name of a business in Jazz Alley.
After lunch at Sellands, we drove to Rancho Cordova: Mather Veterans Village where we’ll be leading a social ride next week.
This pre-ride was short, quick and easy. There are some very nice infrastructure improvements in Rancho Cordova.
