Unremarkable weekend of riding.

Had to throw the bike in the back of our van yesterday for an impromptu ride back from the garage - 15miles ~1400ft. Nice to ride down SPDR though - the climb up by the dam is just about the perfect slope - ~4-6% sustained, you can just spin up that at a nice speed. I threw in a detour (Amend Road in El Sobrante) which spikes up over 15% for a short while.

Today, was a no frills Pinehurst-Redwood-Pinehurst loop. 23miles, ~1950ft. Beautiful day riding, but surprisingly warm from an early hour.
