Ride a bike, share your experience and love. When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart. ~Diane Ackerman

What It Is
A bike train is an organized group made up of children and adults who ride their bikes to and from school along an established route.

Glendora Mountain Road with Oscar M

Every Tuesday, I try to ride Glendora Mountain Road after work.  This past week I met Oscar and his group of friends.

Oscar and I exchanged numbers and Saturday we decided on a ride to Mt Baldy.  Oscar is not only a great guy, he is also a strong rider. 

We rode GMR to the base of the switchbacks up Mt Baldy.

Riding with Team Velocity

This Saturday I did something different.  Michael, Kevin and I decided to ride down to Fullerton and meet up with Team Velocity.

The air was hot, and humid.  The ride was fast. I had a great time.
