Subject: July 20 Ute Pass Ride
> The ride Monday July 20 is to Ute Pass. There will be two starting
> points: North Pond in Silverthorne starting at 9AM (faster group
> perhaps with pace line) or from the bottom of Ute Pass Road at 9:30AM
> (shorter ride with climbing, starts where Ute Pass intersects Route
> 9). Show up at the school about 8:30 and we’ll generally depart with a
> faster group first. A second group will leave shortly after for safety
> to minimize a whole group of faster riders passing a slower group.
>
> After the ride we have a picnic hosted by Bob and Jay Gilson in
> Hamilton Creek, Silverthorne. They will have a propane grill available
> for those who want to cook. Please bring something to eat AND
> SOMETHING TO SHARE WITH YOUR FRIENDS as well as your drink. Bob is
> making the ice cream so we all need to do our part and bring a side
> dish. (For some reason this tends to draw the biggest crowd of the
> season -😊)

> Since this is an out and back there will be no sag. My cell is 970
