I bailed out at mile 75.

We were passing the Orinda BART station and I was already feeling crummy from the heat, and I knew it would only get worse out along Castro Ranch and Alhambra Valley Rds. So the opportunity of a lift back home via air-conditioned public transit was entirely too good to resist.

Since I do lousy in the heat, I'm fairly pleased I managed to make it that far!

And might I add Mel, that stubborn, tenacious freakazoid made it the Whole Way! Her longest ride ever, and in the blistering heat - woo hoo Mel!
