52 miles and 1330 feet

Another day of riding - it was hot! Next weekend is the Lighthouse Century ride that I'll be doing with J, Michelle and Sharon. Well, that would be 'doing with' in the loose sense in that J and Sharon will be doing one of the harder routes and Michelle and I will ride the flat metric century.

Here are some pics from today's ride.

Really cool medieval looking home


Palace at Versaille... in Los Altos. The door is too shadowed, but it was this elaborate ironwork that covered the ENTIRE entrance. I'm speechless from the excess? gaudiness? Just speechless. It was just bizarre to see such a home being built in this location, in this economy...



And finally, I got to ride over the relatively new bike/pedestrian bridge that crosses over Hwy 280. It is a really pretty bridge and gives a great birds-eye view of the highway.



It was a really busy weekend and its off to work tomorrow!
