I know a large part of the US is getting slammed with a cold front, but it was another lovely day in the bay area. Mostly sunny with temps in the upper-50s and low-60s. I agree with @fabiofarlli - hard to believe it's almost Christmas. I went out for a couple hours and a little over 30 miles. I started by heading up the Berkeley Hills via Spruce Street and then Wildcat Canyon, then went around the San Pablo Reservoir in Orinda, before looping back to Berkeley by way of the UC Berkeley campus. Not too many photos today. Here are a few:

Here are a few photos of the bike, a 1980 Colnago Super, shown in Sproul Plaze on campus, with Sather Gate and the The Campanile in the background. Love the fat tubulars and extra gearing possible with a Red Clover triplizer and a Soma long cage mated to a Super Record RD.
