Tierra Bella Century?

[jobob]

Congrats Mel!!

I was thinking about you today as I watched the trees in my backard bend over in the wind.

I remember that flat stretch heading back to Gavilan College, which heads due west into the prevailing winds. It was a whupfest for me when I did the metric a few years back and the wind then was nothing like it was today. So great job !!

You're turning into a aminal, kiddo.

Thanks, Jobob! Yep, that stretch into the headwind was indeed a whupfest.

I just realized that this was my first 100 mile ride since I rode the Primavera Century with my brother back in 1994.

Woo-hoo! Pass the fig newtons! (or was it oreos?)

Hey Snap,

I was wondering if you were working the Tierra Bella. I kept my eye out for you, but obviously didn't see you.

Your club did a fantastic job on the event!

Thanks Melissm for the report. I too felt sorry for any cyclist out today in these nasty winds, which are, BTW still blowing strong up my way.

Congrats to you on a well done ride! If you can get through that ride, the ALC ride will seem like lemon drops!
