Beth--congratulations on your MS 150 ride. I hope to do it next year.
My hill work partner and I attacked the hills today. We rode 14 miles, did over 1000 feet of climbing, and did it in 53 minutes. Then we did a cool down ride on the shady roads of our state park. It was so pleasant and peaceful. It was sunny with a high of 92, 46% humidity, winds 6-8 mph.

I decided to go see if there was stil snow on Mt Baldy. with 75 degree I did think it would last, but there is about 9,000 feet(2,000 vs 10,000) of elevation
darn!
Baldy has the "V: shaped of bare rock at the top, Its; Formal name is Mt San Antonio:
and of course Ontario and Cucamonga Peaks:

That's a nice ride, Fredwina. I would really enjoy those mountains--particularly in alpenglow. Thank you for sharing.

One Hilarious Thing
As we left the 27 mile SAG, I look down and in the center of my handle bars was a praying mantis going along for the ride.
He stayed there until the 40 mile SAG!
Mostly was planted looking straight ahead. Looked like the figurehead on a ship!
After he left, I hit the wall....I guess his praying kept me going!If you don't grow where you're planted, you'll never BLOOM - Will Rogers
