It was frackin' awesome!!!
jabantik and Dennis just killed the climb(s).
I suck.
Weather was just about perfect.
I took plenty of pics, but am too tired at the moment to type much more than this.
I think after a real good sleep I will be able to post up the pics.
I'm tired.
Thanks for riding with me today jabantik and Dennis, you guys did great. I had a fantastic time.

Once again I thank jabantik and Dennis for joining me on this incredible ride. It has been just about 10 years since I rode this last and I guarantee it will not be another 10 before I return there again.

I always love the shot looking back on the first 10 switchbacks. What a way to warm up right out of the parking lot! Glad you guys could make it out on the bike midweek, especially you Sloth. Seems like you've been getting some quality miles in. :thumbsup:

Baja, its a fun ride before or after summertime heat and midweek. We came across one other rider the entire day. Well, when we pulled up there was a small group of riders finishing up and getting ready to leave. I think you will be ready for it before you know realize it.
Yeah, I decided to make the wednesday off not just worth it, but really worth it the last coupla weeks. My legs are still cooked, feels soo good.
