After my long ride with the large group yesterday, I did a shorter ride with a smaller group today. Lyresa, Tom, and I started with the Western Wheelers and did the ride to Fort Ord, but we were mostly on our own, being passed a couple of times when we had to work on Tom’s tire.

It was a pleasant day, much sunnier than the last time I did it. Pictures are below the fold.
