OK! We are getting used to perfect weather, which we had today, but fortunately we celebrate it rather than taking it for granted. It was clear it would be stellar ride when 22 people quickly agreed on the route: What was so serendipitous was how we split up several times (taking alternative routes) and rejoined in a few minutes. We dined at two different places (Rubio’s and the Fish Shop) and even rejoined after that! The best part of all was the camaraderie! So many great friendships were evident throughout the ride. People looking out for each other, enjoying each other’s company. Ken King |

Now we are on the La Jolla Bike Path. There were a great number of local volunteers working on this path as we rode. They were trimming shrubbery and much more to maintain the path. Thank you, All who volunteered. |
