San Simeon

I headed North of Cambria on Highway 1 for a change. The chip seal north of Cambria, even though mitigated, is still a bit rough. It's not so much the rough ride as it is the constant vibration, especially at higher speeds. After awhile you get used to it. At least it's not nearly as bad as when some brain dead engineers at CalTrans back in 2013 decided chip seal on a popular bicycle route was a good idea. 

Using 28mm tires at low pressure on my 700 makes the ride enjoyable and still reasonably fast.

Taking Advantage of the Sunny Days

No rain, no wind, blue sky and a nice 65 degrees. Some clouds expected this weekend followed by more days of winter sun. 

Time to get some miles in and enjoy the Central Coast.

Not a Cloud in the Sky

Finally nothing but blue sky for a few days. Although a stiff breeze makes pedaling a little more demanding it's good to be out enjoying the Central Coast sunshine

Rain, Rain, Rain

 I'll have to wait until Thursday. Oh well.

My 700 will have to stay dry in the garage.

With all the rain this season I've had more then enough time to maintain my 700. It's a well maintained trike that's been spending a lot of time in the garage this rainy season.

Watching the rain

Central Coast Sunshine

First ride this month. Just two much rain lately. But the sun made it out this morning.

Red Brake Cable Housing

It's raining today, so I did a little trike maintenance. I added a little color to my brakes with red cable housing.

I also replaced the foam grips, hand rests and derailleur cables. The ole 700 also got a good cleaning while it was up on the work stand. 

Another Sunny Day
