Los Altos Hills bike ride at EveryTrail
Fantastic weather today, it was like summer, perfect for working out, I did the launch of Body Pump #80 at the Palo Alto YMCA then jumped on a bike for a pretty nice ride with friends. I discovered the Rancho San Antonio County Park, it seems a great place to workout with a lots of trails, I'm looking forward to run there.
Still discovering new places in the Bay Area, today was the Crystal Springs Reservoirs created by the San Andrea fault. Mostly flat, perfect to start a new year.

Here are some pictures of the Memorial Day Ride last weekend. We were about 50 happy bikers riding from San Jose to Santa Barbara, I did 308 miles (over the 370 miles total) and I had to skip one leg the first day - I felt like I can't do more ... :-/ and drive one of the van the second day. This event was for me the opportunity to meet brilliant, inspirational (and fast ...) people, and to do my first century bike ride (100 miles) on the fourth day! :-)
We followed the inland road but next year it's supposed to be the coastal road, I'm really looking forward to do it again!
Here are the GPS tracks I got from my new bike computer.

Today was a beautiful day for biking with friends, we did a 30 miles loop in the Cupertino Mountain and on the top we made a stop at the Ridge Winery for another wine testing. Great day! indeed.
Interestingly we saw a coyote at the top, as you can see on the video we were more surprised than him :-)
