Nice pictures, Eric. I always like to see bike pictures and yours are great. Nice ride, too. I was out yesterday on a bike too, but I didn't take pictures. 40 was plenty warm for me but I did have on a light jacket. I am not from the UP. Cheers, John On Sat, Mar 28, 2009 at 6:41 PM, EricP

No pix, but I, too, Quickbeamed around the SF Bay yesterday, some 74 miles. Gorgeous day, and I did pick up more sun than I should have. I rode to my grandson's little league game in the city of Alameda from my home in SF, via Sawyer Camp Trail along the Crystal Springs reservoir, Canada road in

Wow Eric, that weather looks so nice. Imagine that, the sun shinning on a brevet! A 300k no less. Our 200k yesterday didn't look anything like that. Are you doing an entire super rando series on a tandem? Wasn't there talk of a Rivendell tandem years ago? I'm sure they'd want to do it but I imagi
