With grey skies forecast, we stay close to home. But thankfully, the rain probability has dropped significantly - rain is now forecast for Tuesday evening.

We'll visit the Long Beach port, the Queen Mary, and the new, partially built Mark Bixby bike path on the Gerald Desmond bridge. The PV Bike Chicks will join us enroute for this ride.

Post ride coffee stop @ Riviera Village Bonaparte's

Pace : L2
Ride start is 9am, at the plaza just south of Captain Kidd's
The Tuesday ride varies by design. If you want novelty, this is your ride. Routes vary between ~35-55 miles, 1000-3000 feet of climbing, typically in the middle third of the distance range (41-49 miles). If we go to an eating place, expect a "digestion pace" on the return.

Often there is a destination (a vista point, climb, point of interest, etc). We often go to places that would be crowded on a weekend (eg, Hollywood Sign, Inspiration Point, Porto's, etc). We are usually done by 1-2pm, and a coffee or meal stop is customary (usually at the end; sometimes that's the destination).
