Downieville in September
We’re organizing another Passion Trail Bikes Downieville Trip September 15-16-17, Sat through Monday. The time shift eases commute issues, to keep the grin factor high. The noon shuttle on Saturday makes it possible to get up at a reasonable hour and still make the 4.5 hour drive to D-Ville in time; returning Monday means we’re traveling against the commute, for the most part. Usually some of us stop in Auburn for dinner to avoid traffic in Sacto and it makes for a relaxing drive home.

We’ve booked rooms at the Riverside Inn again & made shuttle reservations with Yuba. If you want to be part of the fun, All you need to do is mail or bring in a cash or check deposit of $50 to hold your place on the fun wagon. Total costs will vary, but will be around $60 per night for the room & $20 per day for the shuttle. So for now all we need is the deposit to hold you space, which is limited to about a dozen fun hogs. You are also welcome to bring your non-riding partner; D’ville is great for hiking, hanging out, swimming, fishing etc. There will likely be a FBG shuttle ride on either Saturday or Sunday. More details to those who join up. Deposits are due here no later than Aug 21, that’s when we have to give back any unused space…. who wants that?
