HillJillys Road Ride: Saturday, November 20th, 9:30am

We're out on the skinny tires this weekend, soaking in the awfully lovely fall foliage in west county. Looks like there might be rain in the forecast for Saturday, but we're keeping our fingers crossed...

Jill's leading this time 'round, and has put together a loop that's just shy of 17 miles, with a couple good climbs--including Harrison Grade. Check it out here. Meet 9:30am Saturday at the Willow Wood in Graton (which is most excellently located right off the bike path, and perfect for riding to the start). RSVPs appreciated. Rain cancels.

As usual, beginner-friendly, everyone welcome, and no one left behind!

HillJillys MTB Ride: Saturday, November 13th, 9:30am

Kristy has missed riding with the HillJillys so much that she's going to lead back-to-back rides: this week, it's a mountain outing in Annadel. Weather is looking good for this weekend, and the trails are nice and tacky--and not too muddy yet. (Good chance that Kim will join up for at least part of this one, too!) RSVPs appreciated!

Meet Saturday, 9:30am, on Channel Drive at the bottom of Cobblestone. The know-how to go now: beginner-friendly, everyone welcome, and no one left behind!

Eek--a bit late posting this one, kids. Sorry 'bout that!

The forecast has cleared up for tomorrow and we're on for a road ride, one of our faves out of Santa Rosa. Meet at the Flying Goat in Railroad Square at 9:30am on Saturday for our Windsor loop (via Fulton & Olivet). And it's a always a good time when Kristy leads. RSVPs appreciated!

As usual, beginner-friendly, everyone welcome, and no one left behind!

Feelin' sparky? Wanna head down to the SF Bike Expo afterwards and check out Bike Monkey's Cross Palace? It'll be awesome, I swear.

Yo, a little drizzle ain't gonna keep us down: we're hitting the trails on Saturday, rain or shine.

Pilar is the HillJilly least afraid of a little mud, and she's leading this weekend's ride in Annadel. Meet Saturday at 9:30am on Channel, at the bottom of Cobblestone. (We promise: she'll pick a route that minimizes any trail damage from wet conditions.) And, hey, it's Halloween weekend: don't be afraid to bring on the costume love. RSVPs appreciated!

The know-how to go now: beginner-friendly, everyone welcome, and no one left behind!

HillJillys Road Ride: Saturday, October 23rd, 9:30am

We're back! Yup, we've been off for a couple of weeks--working up to the GranFondo, and then recovering from it... but very much looking forward to getting back out with the HillJillys!

Figures that we get back on track just in time for the first big storm of the season to hit. Currently, there's rain in the forecast for this weekend, but we're going to cross our fingers and plan a ride anyhow. Meet Saturday, Oct 23rd, 9:30am, at the Flying Goat in Healdsburg. If the weather cooperates, Katie will lead us out on a Dry Creek loop; if it doesn't, rain cancels. RSVPs appreciated!

(If you're feeling the call of cyclocross instead of a road ride? Sonoma County cross season starts on Saturday, too: www.monkeycross.com.)

HillJillys MTB Ride: Saturday, October 2nd, 9:30am

Holy shizzles, October already?!? Despite the mad heat wave sweeping through right now, it's definitely starting to feel like fall. Days are shorter, evenings crisper, leaves yellower...

The rain will be here before we know it, so let's make the most of the time we have: MTB in Annadel this weekend! Kristy is leading this one; meet on Channel Drive at the bottom of Cobblestone on Saturday at 9:30am. RSVPs appreciated!

The know-how to go now: beginner-friendly, everyone welcome, and no one left behind!

Saturday, September 25th: No Ride!

Alas, the week has slipped away from us and no one is lined up to lead this weekend's road ride. We'll do better next week!
