Larry:
Glad you were able to squeeze in a ride before "real cold". 35F sounds
pretty cold to me but it sounds like you've got the gear to stay
comfortable.

I'll be going back next week to take the grandkids now. Only this time looks
like we'll be paying to go walk around the entire exhibit.
Looking forward to it.

Love the train shots. My in-laws live in Barstow, CA. The train
museum/graveyard is always high on my list when we visit.

Here's the Riv site link on the topic:

Lots of good stuff in that "read about..." area. Wool dosen't stink
(a real plus when touring) and is the Schwalbe Marathon of fabrics. I
have a medium weight LS wool jersety that must be
cked one a couple of weeks ago when we climbed Mt Cheaha as well. Going

Isn't that a great way to end the ride!

rain.

Makes me jealous. Waited until after noon to go out. The roads were
mostly ice free at that point. Two wool layers, but a covering of
Marmot Wind Jacket. Kept the rain off that was persistent coming back
from the grocery store.
Temp stayed around 34 the whole time. Maybe a bit colder closer t
Beautiful end of ride picture.
It was dry all day here in the far north of LA County. Luckily it
rained last night.
But a fairly brisk 55F for my ride at 1100am.

You're doing the same thing for the Sierra's that Esteban did for the

You look like you're having a relaxing, great time. Next time you yell

Yeah, have to try to say hi to folks when I'm 1000 miles closer than usual.
Might get to see Lynne if the planets align (she's maybe a mile or so
away!) Possibly Philip, but he lives out in the boonies. They're just

So awesome. I love these get-togethers.

Man - I'm jealous of all you Portland area people. I grew up there
and did mixed terrain type riding on an old Mtn bike, which limited
the distance a little (but not the fun). Wish I could find a way to
get back there.

@Me: Thanks, enjoy the route. There's a few sections with traffic and
no shoulder but I'm sure you'll manage, just be mindful. This was my
first time riding this route on the weekend and there was way less
traffic than on a weekday.
@HR: I don't know what the true measurement of the tires is. I im
