44 miles today, my longest ride on a just completed '78 Super Course. We rode from Camarillo down the coast to Malibu. We stopped at the Hueneme Navy Missle Park for a regroup just as a bunch of exotic cars cruised in. I only got a few pictures, nice cars. After two shakedown runs, the old Raleigh rode very well, the 52/42t crank and Megarange 6 speed performed very well. $20 Craigslist project turned out to be a nice ride. Mid 60s, foggy at the start, 75 and sunny at the finish, 100° when I got home. Ended up with a 17.3 mph average, best ever on that ride!


Malibu traffic jam.



My 2 wheeled "exotic".



Friend's bikes, aluminum, carbon, or steel?
