Del Puerto 200k (Nov 2, 2013)


Participated in my 3rd brevet of the season with Sigman.  This time, a fast 200k out in the far far east bay.... the route below.

the start was at the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station.  We had a rather jolly ride out there.  
Rob doing his thing.

Check out the size of that disc!  
A very comfortable, flat ride in the beginning.
You know you have gone far enough east when.... you see a confederate flag.  
90% of the vehicles that passed us were monster trucks towing dirt bikes for this convention... check out that hill climb!
Joining in on the pace line... that was fun.
Love seeing this bike. 
Second control... at the Subway
Saw these guys getting choppered out of their repair job on the power line.
weee!
Entering Del Puerto Canyon.  Moonscape. 
After a hellacious climb out of Del Puerto Canyon to get to the junction bar,  this was my view for the rest of the ride.  Following Sigman and Bryan, eavesdropping on their complaints about their students.  
And the end... at the Starbucks!
Check out the fixed gear Volagi!
