Man, I lived in Sacramento from the time I started riding to doing fast rides (River Ride) and on into dipping my toe in racing. When I left I was probably still a 5, maybe just a 4. Even though that might be 15 years ago now, I’m certainly stronger and I’d love to go back and finish a Saturday ride up front and put in a good time up Diablo.
