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

Party at the Shack

The party at the shack was fun yet painful.  In a rush to pack my gear before work, I mistakenly packed my thermal knickers.  With temps in the 90's it made for an interesting ride.

"Why do cyclists ride in the middle of the road? Because they're allowed to: a poster from the Department for Transport advises "Cyclists. Ride central on narrow roads."

See those potholes? Not good for your suspension, are they? To cyclists, they're not just inconvenient; they're lethal. The cyclist up ahead might be in the middle of the road for a few seconds in order to avoid a big gash in the ground. Cyclists are expert pothole - spotters. Use this inside knowledge to prevent costly damage to your car's suspension."

Glendora Mountain Road, Bonelli, Ganesha Hills... No Agenda

Today Riko, Nathan and I headed out for a GMR Hustle.  Unfortunately, while waiting for Riko, Nathan noticed his tire was in poor condition.

Nathan's tire was in no condition for riding the back roads of GMR so we decided on Bonelli.  Really we had no agenda, and the ride consisted of sprints to the the next light or up the next hill. 

We rode Ganesha Hills, Bonelli Park, Heckler Hill, Canon, and whatever else we could find and bear. 

There was no agenda to this ride, it was just us dudes having a good time and leaving the work week behind us.

Crazy Legs - Cut Short

I don't know if it was me, my cx bike or the group was just to fast, but I could barely hang on and decided to cut Crazy Legs short and turned left on Scripps rather than head to Euro Cafe to finish the ride.
