Wednesday Evening Pizza Rides
It's time again for our popular Pizza Rides and this month the Pizza place is Mission Pizza 1572 Washington Blvd in Fremont! Join Andy Sass on Wednesday evenings this June for an early evening ride, returning before dark to feast on pizza. There will be multiple routes to choose from.
If you plan on staying for pizza, $5 buys you 3 slices of pizza and soft drinks after the ride (participation optional). When signing in, remember to check “YES” or “NO” on the sign-in sheet for pizza so we order the appropriate amount of pizza. The pizza order is placed before the ride starts so late arrivals will miss out. Food will be ready at 7:30 pm.
The rides meet at 6:00 pm for sign in, to be completed by 6:10. Departure time is 6:15 sharp.
Pizza Ride Leader Reservation List:
July: Andy Sass
August: OPEN
September: Julia & David Walker
You can volunteer to lead a month of Pizza Rides anytime by contacting the Ride Coordinator. See the Pizza Ride Coordinator's "How To" Guide on the FFBC website for more information about leading one.
