Tour de "Oh my God, my back hurts!"

[Veronica]

Jo, there is nothing wrong with being last. I had the longest or second longest time on Mt Tam. I wasn't last, but it's only because some people started after me. It's okay. You have to ride your ride. And you are way better off than those folks who think riding a mile is onerous.

I've been thinking about maybe going for the R-12. I like starting riding at a civilized time. I like sleep.

I've really decided that I don't care for organized rides. Too many people who don't realize that they are sharing the road with other cyclists, cars, etc. Plus I'm selfish and don't like having to wait in long lines for food, water, the bathrooms...

I think I'm turning into a curmudgeon.

Willy Nevin's 200K permanent route looks pretty nice. It goes through Marin but doesn't hit the really big climbs and doesn't go out to the lighthouse. I'm kinda-sorta still planning to do it on April 5 as a prep for the Mt Ham Challenge on the 26th. Just sayin' ...

Hee hee, no comment.
