I'm trying to remember. I grew up North of Moon Pie territory, so I haven't had them much. I seem to recall the crumbliness of the cookie varies a bit, but mostly they hold together reasonably well.

Compared to hear, almost anywhere qualifies.

When I did > 5 hour rides routinely in the summer, I'd take two bottles of Cytomax and two ziploc baggies, each with enough Cytomax to make another bottle. I did one 75 miler in high 80 degree temps, where I drank the 2 bottles, refilled both and drank those, then refilled with plain water and drank one and a half of those, and still lost 5 lbs.
And of course I was thirsty all the rest of that day.

Back in the ‘80s when Cytomax came out, they gave me a big box to try out. The only flavor was apple. I didn’t mind it, but my wife about puked on the stuff.

Yeah, the Peninsula makes a fairly small area very valuable.

Definitely. We bought in 1996, after a brief period of uncharacteristically stable prices. Today? Not sure where we'd have to live.

My sister told me to add $4mm if our house was Ina desirable part of San Diego. I couldn't afford that.

With the possibility of relocation having been mentioned, I took a look at houses near our MD facility. Sticker shock compared to where we've been looking, but about 1/4 of prices here.

Also, I've often thought what Mom and Dad's house would bring out here. 3000 sq ft, two garages, 1 3/4 acre of land....

Since I really hate to stop, and I especially hate to leave a bike unattended, I bring my own food. Usually Clif Shot Bloks and a couple Clif Shots. I explained these to Mrs. GJ as "like chocolate pudding in a toothpaste tube." She looked at me funny, so I said, "That's better than toothpaste in a pudding cup." She agreed with that.

My nephew was out here for a conference and came by to visit. He lives in Virginia Beach, which is pretty damn flat. He found all our hills very intimidating.
