Egan Ride 2023.02 — The Egan Official Launch is this Tuesday, April 4th at 6pm!
At last, the weather forecast looks clear for Tuesday! We will ride as usual starting at 6pm from the Los Altos Chamber of Commerce. We are starting this season with an environmental/sustainable/green (ESG) theme using recycled routes from last year in about the same order. 2023.02 was designed by Greg Finley who will be missed as part of the Egan Leadership Team this year. We’ll give this approach a try and see how it goes.
As this is the first official Egan launch, plan on joining us for pizza and libations after the ride at State of Mind at 101 North Plaza in the Los Altos Village.
