Day 1

We gathered at the Pacific Ocean and dipped our rear wheels in the water. And we were off! We rode through San Diego on bike paths and roads. Within 15 miles, we were out in the hills that were filled with scrub trees and no buildings. Quite a dramatic contrast. The ride to Alpine was not as "Alpine" as the name suggests. We had a few miles of challenging climbs but it was all doable.

On the way to the Pacific, I somehow scratched my leg. I don't know where I did it, but a friend of Katherine's noticed it and was suddenly surrounded by wound care specialists (Katherine's friends) who sprang into action dressing this wound. I think it was overkill, but my timing was impeccable!
