Here in the PNW if it gets above 80f people melt. Being an ex-NYer I've unfortunately acclimated to the region. I promised myself to work around the house today... Well, it's closer to 90 than 70 so... Off I go!!

Just a "short" jaunt up in elevation to get wind in my face and cool off for a bit.
The road to Spada. Of which a little "GSing" :brad on the cruiser/hack! WooHoo!

Wind screen? We don't need no friggin' wind screen!

Pulled over to pull my earplugs... I was riding slow enough to actually "hear" nature...

Temp dropped 10 degrees staring at that stream!

But it was a dry day nonetheless...

When I see a stream like that I always want to stop to cast a fly for few minutes. Thanks for the report and some beautiful pics.
 
Nice report and beautiful pictures.

Do I recognize your bike from the 49er Rally?
