Coast Cruise

6/18/2013

3 Comments

 
Plenty of sunshine for our ride today, but not at all the toasty warm weather one might expect just three days from the Summer Solstice.  There was even a bit of cloud cover trying to hang on along parts of the coast, but not enough to dampen our riding fun.  We had 11 riders rolling out from the park today and a vague plan to hook up enroute with Colleen and Mary Ann, but that was not to be. So we had two VVV rides today: a Big Group Ride and a Small Group Ride!
 
Our Big Ride covered 55 miles and a fair amount of climbing, so a cafe stop was mandatory. We chose the venerable Java Depot in Solana Beach - they have plenty of choices for the hungry cyclist and bike racks.  The roadwork in the area is almost done; and the sharrows make it a lot easier to ride there through Encinitas! 

Next week's ride should be enjoyable - especially if we make a stop at EscoGelato...

Looks like y'all had a good time. I'm planning to ride the LA Wheelmen's Grand Tour Triple Century this Weekend, so a 55-miler wasn't on the schedule today (turned out, it was 4 miles!). hope to be back out there next Tuesday, BUT.... no promises!

Good Luck on the Grand Tour Triple, Ed. I guess you'll earn a week off if you complete that one!

Well, Steve, I didn't earn my day off, but the ride this week looks like sump'n I can handle in my present condition. See you in the morning.
