Ride report

1, originally uploaded by filtersweep.

I live on a peninsula, and my rides generally take me the same route-- south. My riding time is quite limited these days to commuting. When I manage to get out, I need to maximize my workout, so I head for the hills on a personal time trial--- hitting about 1400 feet of elevation.

Starting out a little after 6am while the kids are still asleep. The light isn't the greatest for photos.

Over 10,000 miles and still going strong. I still have no desire to upgrade to a new ride.
