Sounds like fun!! I have posted this up on the chapter's Facebook page for any who want to attend. Perhaps you can create the event on Facebook so I can share it with the group that way.

Count me in (hopefully I won't forget).

Thanks, K. I'll take a stab at posting on the events page. BTW, how in the heck do you pronounce your name. Katlyn as in cat, or Katlyn as in Kate?
I don't like it when someone mispronounces my name. They either pronounce it correctly Marciana or incorrectly Marciano which I understand means martian in spanish - I might look like a martian when I'm suited up - who knows? :roflblack:

Take care.

Spydergirl, hope you and your husband are going to be able to make the ride. I know that it will be somewhat of a duplicate portion of the Monterey lunch ride but it would be nice to meet you guys.

Are we getting ready to rock and roll to the Pinnacles this Saturday? WOOHOO!
Hope you can make it.

We'll be watching the weather forecast this week (so far so good) and will notify you early Sat. a.m. if we need to postpone.

Okay folks, it's time to rock and roll! Tomorrow I understand the rain will be north of the GG bridge. YEAH! So, the ryde is on. You might want to bring a cap, some walking shoes and water if you intend to do a bit of walking at the Pinnacles.

Also, for those folks leaving from the Peninsula Fermin and I will be at the corner of Woodside Rd. and Broadway in the CVS Pharmacy parking lot and PBU at 9a.m.

Rosie is all clean and polished and Ape is ready to ryde. So, hope to see you soon. M :2thumbs:

Here's the link to the first video. Excuse the rattling.
I'm working on it. :gaah: Oh this vid is after we arrived at the Pinnacles and were setting off to see a presentation on the geology of the rocks. It was interesting, fun and entertaining. Then we headed back to the Visitor Center. Shucks.
