Douching it up at AToC



Doing the dirty work.



Our boy Ted relaxes in the TT starthouse.



Saturday it was on to Glendora Mountain Road for the Mt. Baldy stage. There is a peloton and caravan down there someplace. This is the road I rode up.



The main field comes through.

Not much riding for me yet, just spectating. Our friends at Rabobank hooked us up with hospitality tent passes for the TT in Solvang on Friday. Food, drink, and schwag, what more could I ask for? Saturday I did get to ride a little bit, doing the main descent on the course and then riding back up to watch at the KOM. Yesterday I rode over to the Balcom Canyon KOM (only about eight miles from the house), rode down it, came back up (nearly put a foot down, no fitness) but did not stick around for the race to come through. We again did the Wayne's World thing with VIP passes, this time from United Healthcare, so we beelined over to Thousand Oaks in time to take in the five laps on the finishing circuit. Schwag haul even better!

Now that's over with and it's time to work on my fitness. Weather looks decent, mid 60s forecast for the entire week. Having ridden three hours total in the past two weeks, this might hurt. Should have time to update later. Thanks for reading.
