Bill led us on a different scenery route along Linda Vista over to the Outlet Mall near I-10 where we had a fine cup of Starbucks coffee in the sunny outdoor seating area. It was a nice way to wake up and start the day. Then, after our morning break, we mounted out bikes and all hell broke loose in that we pushed much harder and we rode all the way up Twin Peaks over the top of Dove Mt. and down to the end of the road. We turned around and rode all the way back up then down to Tangerine. This should have been enough but NO they wanted more so we rode W on Tangerine, got on the CDO at MarketPlace then into Catalina St Park where we rode to the end and used the bathroom facilities.
For the final act we turned up the speed to about 23 mph on the ride out just to see if we could rotate and go fast at the same time. We did. We pushed up Innovation and all headed home. Great ride. I think I averaged in the upper 17 mph.
Weather got warm and my coat and gloves came off. Nice end to the ride.
