Bigger group than last week! Good stuff. We rolled at 7:35am after a brief recap on format, under overcast skies and a little chill in the air. Big thanks to Ron, Greg K, Frank, Scott, Caroline, Todd, Don, Chris, Wes, Dan D, John and Mario for putting in the miles. Did I miss someone?

Very cool to see a group this big motoring along. Consistent numbers today compared to last week, almost to the minute. There\'s a few riders watching their average heartrates dropping doing the same or more work. Great job - this is progress you can take to the bank.

My Garmin is out of whack in the elevation department. Two other Garmins show closer to 2600 feet than what mine does, so there it is - officially, 2600-plus feet.

Tour of California is next weekend so attendance will be down but the ride will still happen. Look for an email and note here on the blog regarding the shop arrangements to car-pool for the stage.

Glad everyone had a fun and safe ride today. One close call but no skin donations to the pavement gods. Let\\s keep it that way. Have a great week everyone.
