Morning Ride

Waitsburg, Prescott loop

Espresso Velo group ride

I really wanted to do the TT this year because of the radically new first 75 miles--the organizers finally got tired enough of the Napa Valley authorities' demands that they steered clear of Napa, and instead constructed a loop S. of Santa Rosa that was very interesting as it dodged in and out of morning fog, with gorgeous views both to the W. (ocean side) & E. (rranges of hills in the early morning light). Lower than usual temperatures on the Geysers and 2 first Skaggs climbs helped a lot. I really struggled on the Rancheria Wall, but kept my TTDC record intact of not stopping on any of the key climbs, even though I'm way slower now than I used to be. I still love the radical variety in this ride. Tough climbs with incredible see-out views, 15 miles of crashing ocean breakers & bluffs.
