Thanks to those who participated this past Saturday - Ron, Vicki, John and Frank. Small group meant bigger workload and they didn\'t disappoint. This was our first successful completion of the modified spin route to Seal Beach. We turn off University to hit Ridgeline (max 7.5%) and Shady Canyon (avg 2%) before climbing the back side of Newport Coast (avg 3-6%) and taking San Joaquin over to Jamboree. Some good tempo climbs to get the circulation going before we cruise up PCH. This route has 914\' of climbing, a distance of 65 miles and runs about 3:15 riding time with an average speed of 19.3mph.  We\'ll be doing this format for another couple of weeks, then adding a few changes to keep things interesting. Hope to see more riders next Saturday.
