I rode with Bill and the gang today toward Danville. I was supposed to ride "Tour of the Unknown Valley " , but completely forgot that it was today. I suppose it's just as well. I'm not fit enough this year to ride a 100 mile course and enjoy it. Kevin was in the group today ,so rather than ride all the way into Danville ,we turned off and headed for Mt Diablo. Considering I haven't ridden much this year the climb up Southgate wasn't bad. It was very windy today on Mt Diablo, with Kevin being completely blown off the road at least once. On the descent , the wind was blowing so hard I would stop rolling downhill if I wasn't pedaling. All in all , todays ride was very nice ,even if it was windy at times. One good thing about the wind is the sound it makes when it's blowing hard through the trees. To me it sounds like a fast moving train.
I suppose my first official organized ride will be "Party Pardee" in April. I hope to get out more , so I'll be fit enough to enjoy the ride.......Milt
