Well it is that time of year again. Let post up all those crazy beautiful rides we have planned to get ready for the big events this year. I have some make up business that I did not complete last year so that goes on my plate this year. Alta Alpina was cancelled due to the forest fire and when it was rescheduled I was not able to get in the acclimatization in time, 7 passes and 180 miles 17,5000ft was all i was willing to muster. Then Everest Challenge course was a complete bust so I never did that (circuits around Lone Pine, with so many close great climbs). This year I was planning on riding the CTC Stage Race but it is not so "socal" as I thought it would be so I think I will pass. I also want to compete in HooDoo 500 as a two person team. I also dropped 20 lbs last year but gained about 8 back so the goal this year is another 10 lbs from my lowest last year. This year could be a little interesting (complicated) with all this snow and rain.

So here are my plans:
-Tour de Palm Springs
-Camino Real Double
-Southern Inyo Double
-Joshua Tree Double?
-Mulholland Challenge Double
-Breathless Agony
-Heartbreak Double
-Eastern Sierra Double
-Ride Around the Bear
-Alta Alpine Double
-Cool Breeze Double Metric
-Ojai Double Metric
-Mammoth Fall Century
-HooDoo 500
-Everest Challenge
-Grizzly Century?
-Bass Lake Double?

So if you got a ride coming up post it, maybe we can ride together. If you are getting a room, maybe we can split the costs. Lets take advantage of this community. Have fun and be safe.
