Your bike rides this week
Sunday June 26. I rode with Brenda, Paul, Lennore, Jim, Terri, and Sarah in N Natomas on the east side of I-5:
Brenda got a flat. Fixing it became a group project, but no one had a tube that would fit so we began discussing the next solution. Brenda was determined to keep riding so she asked her husband to load up her other bike, drive to our location and swap it for the flat-tire bike. Great idea!

Games
Today when I arrived, the games were stacked in order of play. First up, bird bingo.
Carson always chooses a couple of memory games – he knows he can win those.
End of story?
It was supposed to be, but not quite. I bought an e-bike on March 5, but it was a lemon. There were no similar replacements anywhere so Midtown Trek ordered the one I wanted, the 2022 model. It arrived about two weeks ago, but the front fork was damaged in shipping, the back fender scuffed, the front fender with a dent. The replacement fork was sent right away but did not match the rest of the bike. It will be September before the correct parts arrive. Meanwhile, I want to ride this bike so on went the wrong-color fork and imperfect fenders. First stop was Dani and Kathy’s house. Dani has done ALL the work to get the bike to this point, plus a zero dollar outlay from me for a newer model and a very nice electronic accessory! So nice to know an excellent consumer advocate. Thanks Dani!
I am ready to ride!
Charrette
My very first charrette – “an intensive planning session where citizens, designers and others collaborate on a vision for development.” Jibe invited me and other community members to check out possibilities for improving signage on local trails.
In the range of design choices, from traditional to artistic signage, we all encouraged a design more in the artistic range. I’m looking forward to see what the design team comes up with.

At the corner of Florin Rd & Greenhaven Dr, our turn-around point on Saturday’s bike ride. We didn’t get close enough to see if anyone was living inside.
