I HATE missing all these ride opportunites.

I HAVE to go to some killer party at an awesome mansion in Newport on the water.

Oh well, there's tomorrow.........

Well I went SOLO again... up wood canyon, up dripping cave, 1/2 way up Coyote run to the bottom of rock it... WTF up I went... Almost cleaned it one small dab to stay out of cactus on the rock face,,, down Lynx Up cholla, up ridge rd to Mathis... Down mathis and when I got to the bottom I just did not feel done for the day so back up Mathis I went... Back over to the water tower and down rock it.... Then down coyote and had to hit one last small climb so I took Dripping cave back out and enjoyed the short climb over the switchbacks.... Damn, I can hardly wait to finish my Fish Burrito from Chronic and my 22 oz. fat tire.

After which i will plug in the GPS and see what the totals were



Oh and the day off is tomorrow as I have a meeting in the Bay Area and have an early flight... Next stop Big Bear and LIFT TICKETS

Ain't that little Garmin 305 awesome?

Well...I'm a big fat liar. My little roadie ride was only 37.4 miles.

Has anyone been to the top of Haven Avenue in Rancho Cucamonga? If you haven't, I'll tell you that it's steep as hell for a road bike. 12.5-15% grade at the top. Throwing about 1500 ft of climbing in the first 6 miles was definitely a leg-burner.

Here's the elevation profile:



Not that anyone cares, but here's playback of MY RIDE:

I haven't ridden since Monday morning and it's killing me. I probably won't get to ride again until Sunday afternoon.

That's pretty cool, bro.

I started at the park, went up cholla, down rockit, up rockit, down lynx, down coyote, up the canyon, up cholla (again), and down cholla. This was my first time on the new bike at aliso. Think I'm gonna try Mathis on Monday...

I think I would probably die if I took my SS up Mathis... Somehow I think you will pull it off...

Let me know how it goes...

Looks like it's the GeoLadder's software. Geo Agent I think.

If you are using the 305 just try their free trial membership thing and as long as you are not trying to create an official "route" it should continue to give you the charts... They have a free download of GeoAgent on their site...
