The schedule looked something like:7:15am - Ride Mt Diablo - North Gate - South Gate - Mex & me - to make up for not going to Mt Tam.
9:00am - 12:30pm - Ride House of Pain* - me
12:30pm - Get home and take Freddie to soccer on his bike - me
1pm - Meet Mex for coffee in Walnut Creek
2pm - Pick Freddie up from soccer - Ride home
Evening - Watch a movie with Maria, Freddie and Joseph; then another with Fiona, Ruth and Mex.
90+ miles for me on Saturday - including a ride with Mex and Frederick, watch two movies without falling asleep - am I superDad (seems an appropriate question to ask the Masters community)?
Thanks to Mex for understanding my need to ride on Saturday, sorry we missed our early morning coffee, next time we’ll have to go harder up Mt Diablo or just ride to Danville.
Flowers, dinner and great conversation will have to wait for next year - I was too bloody knackered by the end of the day.
* House of Pain - not the Hip/Hop group - but a group ride from Rudgear Rd, Walnut Creek @ 9am Saturday.

You missed out my schedule.
Leave you on the Blvd with a group of riders not on the HOP ride. Glad you finally figured that one out!
Get home in time to take Joseph to his soccer game, take Maria to her soccer game, drop Fiona off at ballet, go back to pick Joseph up from his game, go back to pick Maria up from her game. Meet you for coffee. Go home and eat! Go pick Fiona up from ballet.
Deal with daughter No.2 who has been surfing the internet and watching TV the whole time and remember that daughter No.1 is not home from her sleep over yet. Did I forget anyone? Oh yes Frederick, no wait, you dealt with him!
I can cope with all of the above I just can’t cope listening to all the other soccer moms complain about how they have two kids/games that they have to plan around that day.
