Such a fine time.

Thanks for welcoming the flat lander (from Sacramento). Really enjoyed the climb, well could have used one more gear! and the fun but not too steep descent. Not much traffic for a beautiful Saturday, most drivers were courteous. Quite a few nice bikes to gander at as well.

Thank you to the organizers. That fine poster shows right about the time I almost took a break before the top...but carried on

Cheers

Scott

Great riding with you down there (up there?) Scott! Those jackets came in handy after all!

If this winds up becoming an annual event, you'll have to get a contingent together from southern Cal to drive up for the next installment, Manny.

Just missed it! And I suspect you have the wrong mountain as well.

Ah! Well, keep an eye on the forums here around March of next year as this is very likely to become an annual event.
