14 years ago, I bought my first carbon bike - a road bike. I’m catching the “gravel bike” fever after borrowing my boyfriend’s for 30 minutes of offroading. So I’m now stalking bike options and figuring out what might be best for me.

Hunter and i were biking the other day parallel to the caldecott tunnel / 24, and were horrified to see a mole, midday, just rolling over and over again down the hill/pavement. We think maybe a huge rainstorm drove it out and it got lost trying to not drown on the road. they are ALL HANDS, no limbs! Poor thing was made to dig/swim only, not walk/run.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU donors to my AIDS LifeCycle8 bikeride!
I took about 500 photos myself during the seven days of riding. Hunter also took about that many photos, too. I will make a combined album soon and edit a video as well and put links to them on this site.
We finished day three’s ride today. I an feeling very strong still and enjoying the unbelievably pretty inland agricultural “salad bowl” of CA and then the dryer wide open grasslands too. The weather has been quite good – not too hot and not too cool. The colder mornings are offset by the rather unseasonly humidity.
