today

woke up this morning to a steady drizzle and intermittent showers off the Pacific. ride was planned for 9am, no worries though, it's Saturday. pour a fresh cup of strong coffee from my french press, go for a walk with the baby and see what the day will bring. 11 am text comes in, "it's clearing, let's go." drive across the bridge and the showers return, start the climb in the rain. bummer, but im on my bike so im happy. the forest is beautiful, full of mist and soul. the rain stops and the roots are greasy like bacon grease. pop out of the forest into bright sunshine. great ride, great friends...riding rules!

 Climbing.
