April 17th Santa Rosa up Rucker Road to Los Alamos back through Alisos Canyon and back the same loop from the infamous Drum Canyon day

121.23 km
Bike time 4:27
Total Time 5:35
Average Cadence 79
Average Speed 27.23
Max Speed 60.98
Average HR 155

I was out voted for a century. Three riders took off early to avoid getting beat up with Jamie, Kimble, Steve and Ed, the last time I was left with these boys things didn’t end well for me. But I jumped onto their wheels and was pulled along the entire 40km up Santa Rosa. The hill on Rucker Road barely felt like a climb after The Fig. I stayed with the boys the entire time and was feeling like I was on fire that day! I harassed Jamie to come swimming with me, Jamie Beninger a multiple time top 50 age grouper. When I say top 50 I mean top 50 overall, pros included. The man is crazy fast. He told me my stroke look “pretty good” I was pretty happy. A fantastic dinner tonight at Los Olvios where they filmed a scene from Sideways. Seriously that dinner was spectacular. Hopefully we’ll have time for a quick ride tomorrow before we have to get on the plane.
