173652(click pic) Glendora Ridge Road on way out to Baldy Village. 10,064 foot Mt. Baldy in background

Did 47 miles with 4856 feet of climbing this morning. Went out to Baldy Village.This ride I did today is going to be part of the next to last stage in the Tour of California next May. Now people on this forum will be able to see what GMR/GRR , Mt. Baldy area is all about.Most of the gain is on the way out, which makes the return very enjoyable. The wind was blowing quite strongly all the way out, making things that much harder. As if I needed any help making it harder. Great day, just a little warm on the climbs, but that made it all the more fun. Mr Beanz left me in the dust as usual.:50:

GMR is turning into the official "Clyde Ride". :) Looks like a great ride.

Nothing like uphill into the wind haha!


Not much excitement , but threw one together for some GMR views and a little Dream On by Aerosmith.
