Holy cow! What a ride. If you've ever found yourself longing at the Mt. Diablo photos on RBW, and find yourself in Santa Monica, head up to the hills for a mixter. Photos:

I'd say the ride was about 15/85 pavement/dirt. This was an absolutely beautiful ride, and of course, great company. Thanks especially to Seth for the idea and Aaron for hosting us at his place. I wanna do it again. On Sep 6, 10:29 pm, David Estes <cyclotour...@gmail.com> wrote: > Fantastic ride, from about 10:30 - 4:00??? Tire of choice (chosen by choosy > cyclists!) was a 35mm Pasela.
