Today's coast ride took me south to the Swami's Beach overlook and back.

First stop was the Moonlight Beach concession stand for a chipotle aoli dog and kombucha. My internist knows nothing about this, and I'd like to keep it that way.

Next stop and turnaround was the little Encinitas city park on the bluff above Swami's Beach. You could follow the smooth, stately southwest swell nearly to the horizon.

The waves weren't all that high, but the surfers waiting at Swami's famous reef break caught many long leisurely rides.

The highlight of the ride was a long conversation with the 30-something owner of this gorgeous Bianchi road bike. Love the color scheme!

From there, it was a straight shot home — mostly with the motor off.

After almost 6 weeks of no riding I finally got out for my first ride of 2025.
The ride was a short one, but I just couldn't miss out on a beautiful sunny day. Pretty cool in the wind though at 6C but that gave me a great opportunity to try out the new heated vest I got from my son for Xmas.
Tires were almost flat from disuse!





The heated vest was a complete success. Had it on the lowest setting which was perfect. Battery is almost 5000mah so I think it should last for quite a few hours on low.
Hoping the weather allows for more from here on...

I have made good use of a heated vest, gloves and socks on winter rides.

Stopped to smell the roses. You would think they would know better than to bloom in January.

Another ride on Sunday. Longer but still a quick run.
Cold but mitigated by the vest again.
Gorgeous day again so couldn't resist. Odd thing was that on Friday I saw that my front tire was flat. Not just low, but dead/slanted on the floor flat.
Saturday I threw the bike on the workstand, filled the tire to 25psi and spun the tire closely looking for signs of a leak... maybe some sealant or something.
Went over the tire 3 or 4 times and nothing.
Went for the ride and all good. Got me, maybe a funky valve.



At Watershed Park I saw this vehicle...



Sunny day...





Tire pressure holding...

I spent the month of November in Encinitas a while ago. Nice spot. We Went to the Del Mar racetrack for Thanksgiving dinner on the patio. Torrey Pines park was cool.
