Our TnT ride went up Mt. Diablo (my first summit in months - I need to do more climbing!) and then out to Morgan Territory. Mt. D. was what you'd expect for this time of year - beautiful with all the wild flowers out, and everything all green. No camera today, so sorry - no pics.:( Lots of stupid drivers though - one tried to pass me around a blind switchback and almost wiped out a couple of guys descending in the other lane. Not good.

Morgan Territory was also really nice, especially now that they put something resembling pavement down. For the most part, they just put a new layer right on top of all the old potholes and bumps, but it's still a huge improvement. The only negative was that the BMW car club decided to have a group drive, with about 20 of them out there too. They were mostly pretty polite, and gave us plenty of room, though.

Great ride - 70 miles and 6,700 feet of climbing according to my computer.

I saw you coming up SGR. Talked to the TnT ladies with the lap dogs at JNXN.

I took a photo for you...
