    Thanks again, everyone, for the positive thoughts. I really love being part of this community, more than I can tell you.

    SZSZ, I go to Lake Miramar in the Scripps Ranch area. It's a five-mile loop around the lake, but just shy of the 4-mile marker, there's a turnaround, so I call it a Hobbit lap - I go there and back again (like the title of Bilbo's book in The Hobbit). Only I go there and back again five times, just shy of 8 miles each lap, then a short lap around the parking lot to make up the quarter mile difference, to make 40 miles.

    During the week I ride at Fiesta Island, too, between 12 an 3, so maybe I'll see you there. I drive a white Rav 4 with silver trim, and you'll recognize my license plate. It's the same as my screen name. I'm the one on the purple and white Palomar GT with road tires and a hot pink helmet.

    Hey, that's cool! I'll look for you! When I go alone I do go early, maybe we can meet up. Otherwise, I ride with some folks with day jobs so we go later when the wind really kicks up. It's nice to go earlier (I can make my own hours). I'm on a Giant TCR that is predominantly white and blue; I am often wearing blue and guess what color my helmet is? (Blue).

    Actually, I look a lot like this:


    I park in the south shores lot and ride over from there. I will keep my eyes open for you. It's lovely to draft at Fiesta with the headwinds!

    In fact, Fiesta has been really, really good for me, I have increased my mph respectably, which thrills me. But it's fun to actually ride with someone, (who I am not chasing, while heaving, gasping for breath, on the brink of death!) so it doesn't always have to be about pushing limits!
