It's October and the days are getting shorter which means it is time for Nature to begin her Halloween display as the tarantulas emerge and begin their quest for love. What better place than the remote and spectacular roads of eastern Alameda County and the San Antonio Valley to view these shy arachnids? This is a very simple out and back along Mines Road and Route 130 as we go up the backside of Hamilton. Meet at 8:15 for a 8:30 roll out from the softball fields in Livermore. I don't know if the Junction is open (it won't be on the way out) but there should be water at the CalFire station. Bring coins/bills for the vending machines at the Visitor Center at the top of Mt. Hamilton. I listed this route as TM so we can be sure to spot the spiders as they are creeping along the road but it will probably be at the upper end of TM. If you are lamenting the fact that you won't get a full century out of this ride, you are more than welcome to add an out and back up Del Valle. We'll be waiting for you at HomeGrownHops on Mines near Tesla. The route can be found here: Backside of Hamilton. Ebikes OK. Helmets required.

Workshop No 1: General Bike Maintenance. Special Focus: Tires, Tubes, and Tubeless
Time: 9am to 11am
Come join fellow Grizzlies who will help you maintain your bike and keep it in top running condition. We plan on holding this workshop every 2 months throughout the year.
Our first bike maintenance workshop will focus on picking the correct tires and tubes for your rims. We will review the best ways to install your tires the first time, what to look for as your tires start to wear down and then what to do when and if you have a flat out on the road. We will cover what to carry in your saddle bag to help you fix your flat. We will also discuss the pro’s and con’s of switching over to tubeless tires and what you will need to allow the use of tubeless tires. We will bring a tubeless specific wheel and show you how to set it up.
What to bring to the clinic: You can just bring your bike and any questions regarding bike maintenance or tires. We will do our best to take a look at everyone’s bike - especially tires and rims at this 1st workshop. Plan is to have some fun and learn a bit about how we can be better at bike maintenance and setting up our tires .
