As posted at Tri-Geek Dreams by the Great and All Powerful Kahuna, I have been invited to partake in the 85 mile training ride from the "O.C." to San Diego. I am honored that Robo-Stu would think to invite me on this training ride.
It took me all of about one minute to get a travel waiver from Mistress to go to California. As stipulated in our Training Contract, I am only allowed specific training/racing destinations outside the Valley Of The Sun and those were scrupulously hammered out in our negotiations.
What is surprising about her sudden agreeablity is that I am going on a backpacking/fishing trip to Yosemite National Park with my godfather and other fishing buddies from July 17 to July 26. So I will be home for two days then leave Friday afternoon for Casa de Kahuna.
As fate would have it I was concerned at the California ride and my lack of biking leading up to it but today, my designated swim day, I will have to switch to tomorrow so I can get back home early enough to relieve my mom from Mighty Mo and Topper duty. So today I am plotting a 90-120 minute bike workout. Its only going to be 112 degrees today so it shouldn't be that bad...right?

How COOL! Oh, this will be an epic report. The three amigos ride!
I love it! ONLY a 112 degrees...no big deal, right? Wowsers.
I am really looking forward to hearing all about the ride and seeing pics from your cool new camera!
"We're not going to see 120 degrees buddy boy, everyone knows your heart explodes in your chest at 110." Cliff Clavin on a re run of "Cheers" last night, the four guys were stranded in the desert at night lamenting what day might bring- I laughed out loud.
