Borrego Five-O

4/13/2013

0 Comments

 
Another fun day on bikes in the desert for our group of six riders, which included: Jerry, Les, David, Susan, and Teri.  Extra-special kudos to Teri who overcame illness to complete her first ride up the Montezuma Grade!
 
The Borrego Five-O is a nice little fifty mile challenge. There's plenty of climbing, with the hors catégorie Montezuma Grade right out of the gate; and it doesn't lack for scenery.  We were pretty lucky with the weather this time: lots of sunshine, warm but not too warm, and even the wind sometimes helped (especially from Scissors crossing to Tamarisk Grove!) 
 
The post-ride lunch at Carmelita's was good, but next time we will probably go to Red Ocotillo. The Red Ocotillo has a quiet, sunny patio dining area, which is really pleasant - as long as the wind cooperates!
 
Cheers,
Steve
