CUTTING IT SHORT TODAY

Yep, those are the same homes that Bob and I drool over when we head to midtown from Westside. Gorgeous with gorgeous views.

Even on my "off days" I still can't get away from the mountains, as I am the mountain...ha ha. no really. it's all good.. Just wishing for flatter roads to ride someday... USA in May, here I come with my new/used Roubaix.!

I was in Carp last week at the beach. got 163 mi and had a blast. Weather was awesome. Surf was 65 degrees. No wetsuit. I enjoy your posts and give me ideas where to go. Back to Carp in Sept

Sounds great!

I have a 21 mile out-and-back route (flat bike trail) that is my go-to when I should do a ride but I am just not feeling it. I know that I can always ride that route and get in some activity/miles. It is not, but at least I got out for some exercise.

[@nerigarcia7116]

Love how you thought that tiny stretch of overpass was your sketchy sections. It's like that my whole ride living in Long Beach 😂

[@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia]

@@nerigarcia7116 it was empty that day of the drug dealers, gangs, and homeless people.

Always a good day to ride (except when it's in the minus temps and snowing outside - I live in Iowa lol) Grew up in So Cal. Missed everything except costs of living, the crowds and traffic.

[@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia]

You got that right!

[@sigfreed11]

Also would you be interested in racing in the upcoming indieVelo Grand Tour 5 day stage race? There are jerseys for GC, mountain and sprint!

[@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia]

@@sigfreed11 where’s that?

[@sigfreed11]

@@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia checkout “indieVelo Grand Tour” on KZbin search and there is a silly little video about it from Toto. You’ll want the Google docs details link in the description 👍🏻

What are your thoughts on super high end Lycra bibs? I have a bunch of Pearl, Enduro,Speciaized and Voler (club kits) bibs.I have had no issues with my back to back long distance rides and of course shorter weekday rides. But I was thinking of upgrading to Assos,MAAP or Rapha or some other super high end brand. Assos is my first choice, but I have no experience with them. Your thoughts?

[@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia]

@@hardmtnbiker if there’s one item where quality matters… it’s bin shorts. My personal favorite is Castelli… they fit me the best.

[@hardmtnbiker]

@@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia I have owned those Castelli bibs and jerseys and like them

[@sigfreed11]

Do you ride in any local cycling clubs/teams?

[@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia]

@@sigfreed11 just the LBS which is essentially a random group of dudes that show up every weekend at the same place.

[@edromero7985]

....42 after 80+ is alot....maybe cut it down, you know you were tired.....I ride that bridge right by my house all the time, it's not that scary

[@CyclingDave]

In your title, you have Sunday morning, not Monday... fyi

[@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia]

@@CyclingDave I rode on Sunday, but it takes time to edit and may not come out until days later.

[@CyclingDave]

@@cyclinginsoutherncalifornia You do some very good editing.
