Tina and I spent a weekend at the Albion River Inn, celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary. It was a few weeks before the actual anniversary date of Sept 18th, which was the only week we could arrange. We renewed our vows and had a tasty anniversary cake. Pictures are here
The Good—My legs felt pretty good and I finished with practically the same time as I had in 2005, the Quack Cyclists put on another great ride, and the weather was absolutely perfect.
The Bad—Alto the goat was no longer manning Pet the Goat, and a fellow DMD rider collapsed and died while climbing the backside of Mt. Hamilton.
The Ugly—I crashed on Morgan Territory, but was not hurt. I wore some of the course on my jersey while riding the rest of the course.
Mulholland Double: Well, I finished the thing
Summary I didn’t have great legs for this ride, had to repair a bent chain, and had a nice bonk at the end. I give details below. Maybe not epic by some standards, but given my previous attempt at this ride, it seems about par for the course.
Tina and I just got back from a fine vacation on Maui. It was a most excellent adventure, with cycling, snorkeling, and fun at the amusement-park of a resort that we stayed at while on Maui.
As usual, I took a few photos here and there and posted them right here.
