Another Sunday Ride
Jul. 24th, 2005 10:55 pmSo half of P's present arrived in the mail on saturday, and I couldnt wait until August to give it to him. I did however tease him mercilessly by dancing around holding the box. :) He LOVES his new jacket and boots -- a First Gear Mesh Tex II and Setup gran prix boots (which were on sale).
They look sharp and fit him great! I was so happy that he's better protected now. :) He doesnt know the pants are coming in next week. hee hee!
Anyway, tho we were out late last night, and I was a slug getting out of bed, we went for a ride in the afternoon, starting around 4 pm! Went from Melrose to La Cienega to Wilshire out past Bundy into Santa Monica, up Lincoln to San Vincente, over back to the 405, where we hopped onto Sepulveda heading north past theSkirball and the Getty.
What a fun road! it was nice and wide open...
Up to muholland and back east towards home -- I finally pulled ahead, and started working on hanging off and keeping my lines good -- not going fast, but just working on technique. I think I need to do lunges at the gym, my legs get too tired too fast!
Stopped at a lookout to drink gatorade and talk, and then I headed home - a quick 2 hours ride, and the weather was cool, not too hot, and a new 'loop' to do in the future.
