I'm leading a new guy on a ride today- he just moved here from Hawaii and had posted in a local riding group that he needed a tour- we're both riding tour de cure this year too which is cool. He hasn't ridden his bike since last year so we're taking it easy, shooting for 20-25 miles with a few rolls- mostly on bike path. It's maiden voyage for my new bike as well though I'm fudging the footing- have clipless pedals and no shoes to lock in with, so I'm just wearing my running shoes, should be interesting?

I rode to church. We're having Santa Ana Winds, so going east was challenging. Then I turned around and headed west going about 25 mph Woo hoo!
Although once I got in shadow of the Mountains, I had another head wind
When I got to chruch, one of the parishioner wanted my advice on a bicycle his daughter had left with hie and told it was OK to get ride of. It's a Celo Europa from the late 80's early 90's he supposed to get back w/ Frame size and Gearing (All I could tell was shimano 105 and a double)
Coming home I took advantage of the tailwind, but stopped to take a pic:
