Los Angeles- breakfast and casual ride?

We're still on, and I'm looking forward to seeing anyone who makes it out! Also, if anyone just wants to come for the eating and chatting part, feel free.

Great Breakfast and great ride, Aly!
I think that "little" hill was about 700 feet.
I left my camera at home , no Pics!
Can I bring my big wheel bike next time ?(I had my Bike Friday)
Have to tell a story,
I stopped by In Cycle in San Dimas on the way back. Normally, I ride my bike over. When I got out of the store I walked over to the bike rack. Then I remembered I had my bike in my car!

Thanks! That was a blast.
I'm not sure if we're quite ready for you on the big wheel bike- considering you pretty much smoked us on your folding bike (and after doing a century the day before). I guess we might consider letting you bring it if you promise not to leave us too far behind! That's funny about the bike rack. It's strange how comfortable we get with our routines. I probably would've had a little moment of panic wondering what I had done with my bike.

As for the cycling, I have a feeling Amy will be giving you a run for your money before too long. She went after the hill on the second time around and rocked it, then she made me ride 40 miles! I almost feel as though I was hustled by sweet Amy and her claims of never having ridden more than 20 miles. She finished without breaking a sweat and with a big smile on her face. Hmmm. As I said before, it was a blast!

Thanks to both of you for meeting up with me. I enjoyed both the conversation and the ride. I have new cycling friends- I'm so happy. I can't wait to do it again...

Hey, now! I really hadn't gone more than 20 miles!! But it was amazing!! And I was feeling great until just a few minutes ago. We had to have dinner with family tonight and when we got home from Thousand Oaks, I climbed out of my husband's miata and my quads and knees were on fire! I think just too long for my tired legs to be folded up in the tiny car.

But it was absolutely wonderful! Thanks for a great day!
