Panera Meeting. 9:00 Departure. This ride will let us sample the different types of riding that we have in the Santa Maria Valley. Riders will get flatland, a gentle climb. A semi-challenging climb, a screaming downhill and a flat ride back into Santa Maria. With a straight route out and back the mileage is just under 30 miles and 800+feet of climbing. Adding on to the ride, down 1 to Jack’s for blueberry pancakes, will pile on about 10 more miles of flat travel.
