RED DRESS DAY!!!

On Day Five, Red Dresses are de riguere.

Last year mine got caught in my chain -- near disaster! This year-- a
very short skirt!! The hell with propriety.

BIKE PARKING IN SANTA CRUZ

2150 riders this year. Alot of bicycles.

DAY THREE !

Today was 68 miles. It included "quad buster" - a hill with a name can
be trouble!

But although I'm slow, I rode the whole way. But I was definitely beat
from the 107 miles on day two!

I've got pictures but between phone battery and slow connections mo
transmission has worked. It may have to wait for a post ride recap.

Tomorrow - 93 miles from Paso Robles to Santa Maria.

Time for bed!!!
