QMDC Day 3 Summary

Amazing day 3 rolling out of Big Sur with 114 miles in front of us and over a mile of climbing. We began the day with perfect weather and virtually no fog impeding the gorgeous views rolling out 101. Everyone was a bit nervous heading out for what could be a very long day in the saddle but there was just a buzz of excitement in the air as the Garmin boyz were here and riding with the group the whole day.

I headed out with Lisa Jennings' Group 2 "MUCH FUN" as we renamed ourselves and cruised up the climbs with Gilberto Alavez again. He is just an amazing guy and a true gentleman ... oh and a monster cyclist. The views out of Big Sur just made me appreciate the fact that the creation of this planet was no accident and we are just playing a part in a bigger plan.

Getting to lunch today past mile 60 was a relief for most as the majority of the climbing was behind us and the remainder of the day was just cruising along the coast and rolling toward Pismo Beach. It was another great opportunity for me to ride with and along side another one of our phenomenal handcyclists in the event. It was another day of great appreciation for being allowed to be part of this experience.

CAN THIS GET ANY BETTER ???.
