Southern California is a paradise. It's not for no reason that it is overrun with people.

NSFW-ish. I've actually seen that guy walking around the beach in his outfit of choice. Didn't realize he had a pink bike and enjoys motorpacing city buses on busy highways without a helmet. Lots of good choices being made. That aero form is on point.

Nice glutes.

Last night I ordered The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel on Amazon Video. Not a bad movie (especially for some of you old fogeys).
However, now my newest recommendations list, cleverly named by Amazon "For a Night In," is, no lie:
Queen of Spades: the Dark Rite
11th Hour
Hollow Creek
Murdered Memory
Maggie
A Cry from Within: a Tormented Soul Never Dies
The Nest
Ouija Summoning
The Vatican Tapes
Little Accidents
Home
Nowhere Safe
Bipolar
Bad Ben

Wait a minute...does the Amazon algorithm programmer have a sense of humor, and/or have I just been insulted?"

Ride Report

I ventured out into the boonies. It's kind of hairy out there. I saw horse dung on the road.

The End.

You didn't drink from your bidon afterwards, did you?

We had wind today, but I was a bit sheltered up on Flagstaff. Intervals suck, but they're more doable on a nice little climb.

I was following [MENTION=140600]LAJ[/MENTION] on Strava, but do not see this ride in my feed. Perhaps I've been blocked?

2.5 horas sin aqua sounds awful!

I don't think people can be blocked on Strava, but I don't know that for sure. Just not a lot to see. I see intervals and a lot of work, others see 19 miles.

Clearly a serious cyclist.

I had a big drink beforehand and did not work up a sweat (70-75F).

That's not the kind of vacation photos people usually share. :lol:

Feed fail. And it says 29 miles. You need a refund from Strava.

Very nice. Way better than the one I took from the same spot. Almost as important, did you get a pic of the steps the priest fell down in the Exorcist?

It was a particularly nice one. I'm inspired by [MENTION=6684]valygrl[/MENTION]'s trip to Mallorca that I've been making noises about going to Spain. I'm getting pushback from Mr H, who prefers to spend more time sailing. :)

No you can for sure block people on Strava. I've done it. :)

Some friends of ours sailed to Mexico. :)


And then through the Panama Canal to the Caribbean. :) :)


We had visions of them crossing the Atlantic.


Nope. They came back through the Panama Canal and are currently en route to the South Pacific. :) :) :)

My legs hate me. going hiking up a mountain once every two months hurts. It was a good day otherwise.

Nice vacation pics everyone.
