Mr. Q's Corner

President Ron QHere we are at the beginning of July, and cycling activities have slowed down for the summer.  Another Climb to Kaiser is over and the frantic rush of local cyclist to train on Tollhouse, Big Creek, and the route to Kaiser Pass has subsided for the year.  As usual for July, temperatures now run into the triple digit figures making early morning rides mandatory.  If you want to keep some semblance of conditioning, there are alternatives to beat the heat: head for the mountains!

My favorite summer ride locations are an easy 45-minute drive: Shaver Lake, Dinkey to Wishon or Courtright, and the Grizzly route out of North Fork.  Both areas will get you out of the heat up into the cool higher elevations for a scenic comfortable day on your bike.  So get together with some of your riding buddies, car pool, and head for the high country.

The Fresno Cycling Club would like to thank Roger Hogan and Deanna Cox, the 2010 Kaiser coordinators, for their tireless and extraordinary effort in making this year’s CTK another memorable event.  The Climb to Kaiser is legendary throughout the western states and Roger and Deanna’s efforts along with the hundreds of volunteers who helped, will continue the tradition of being one of the best-supported rides in California bar none. 

See you on the Road,

Ronald Quitoriano, FCC President
