I think I will head up into the Tulare county foothills - it is supposed to be foggy and cold so we will probably start late and end with a hot drink and a pastry or two.

craig1985 said:Going to do at least 86-100km. I will be getting up at 4am to go riding though. For the reasons that it has been about 31-32 degrees for the last few days, and I will try and go out whilst it is a little bit cooler, the traffic around here can be a problem, and ideally you want to go out early and be home or be not far from home when the traffic gets crazy, and last but not least, I'm taking the bike into the bike shop to have my drive train replaced (I have the parts), and I want to be there first thing in the morning when he opens.
Tuesday will probably be at least 120km.

Sunny, beautiful and the food is equal to the mood.
CentralCaliBike said:Would that be to the college (PUC), if so, great climb - some of the best scenery around. I spent a week there at a conference a couple of years ago and got 200 miles of riding in the evenings there. I also lived on the hill while studying for the bar exam. You are a lucky guy if that is your local ride.
craig1985 said:TBH it is more humid then anything. At least where you live it is more of a dry heat (?).
