Group Ride To The Southwest

Uncategorized

Yesterday my group rode to the Southwest, first on rural roads up in the foothills then on the beautiful bike paths in Gilroy. y I rode my non-electric road bike (Specialized Sirrus, the closest thing I have to a “normal” bike). I hadn’t taken it with with this group for a while and wanted to see how I kept up with them on it. I did ok and it was fun, but it was challenging, I was a bit tired afterwards.

The fog was just lifting as I left home, the rest of the ride was sunny but still cool. There is some smoke coming down from the wildfire in Oregon near Port Orford, but the air wasn’t bad. Some friends are up there helping out their Aunt, who has a ranch, make sure her critters are safe. We wish them well!
