That’s funny. Pismo has an exhibit. Is it dinosaur month?
Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

Wonder what elemental cheese tastes like.

Apparently so. The South Carlsbad State Beach Campground store hosting our display attracts locals and campers alike with decent food and drink, a fabulous view, and frequent live music year round.
The campground isn't filling up yet, so guessing that adding a dino display to the mix this time of year is mainly aimed at the locals.

it's a Swiss cheese kinda funky smelling and a little funky tasting. It's not as sour as the cheap stuff. melts well.

Man, some serious slackers this week. 
These are the most miles I have gotten in a long time.

What a relief! Thought I only had 3 days.
Nice day for a ride yesterday on my favorite bike, a Walmart Schwinn hybrid that I've had for many years. In the past I've added a mid drive TSDZ2 with performance approximating a Yamaha PW-SE gravel bike that I have. Unfortunately the TSDZ2 adds about 7#plus battery weight of 5-9# depending on what battery I use and necessitates a single chainring instead of my 44-32-22 triple. This ride I used a low power Qiroll friction drive that adds only ~3.5# including 200wh battery with no change to the drivetrain.
~30 miles, total ~2000ft elevation gain. Started with full battery, ended with 2 of 4 battery indicator lights still lit.
Short spur on new Mitchell Point tunnel trail
Remnant of what was left of the original Hwy 30 road after I-84 was built with removal of the original tunnel
Hood River to Rowena Crest

Wow Rob, that is a fabulous shot. If there is a biking calendar, this photo should be on the cover.

Spectacular shot! Saw several of those in my Colorado days — always with jaw on the ground. Coastal SoCal's hard to beat, but I miss my thunderstorms!

Had a lot to do this weekend but the weather was great and slowly improving.
Headed out for a short ride Sunday afternoon around 15C in the sunshine just wearing one layer of long sleeves.
Off to the sports fields in Surrey. Heading east on 80th Ave...
Daffy picture...
Just in time for the game to finish...
Lots of kids at the pump track. Met a guy who invited me to a local bike club. Will consider it...
On the way home it started getting chilly and I was second guessing my single layer strategy (or lack thereof). Ah well, all good and nice to get out.
BTW... I'm really liking those Clik valves...

Yesterday's 30-mile coast ride south to Del Mar with neighbor D was a dance with the marine (air) layer. You expect the low cloud decks and fogs to come ashore in late spring and early summer — hence the terms "May Gray" and "June Gloom". April's usually pretty clear, but a good part of every day's been dreary this "Graypril".
One minute chilly, hazy, and overcast. No visible ocean horizon.
Twenty minutes later, sunny, clear, and warm where you are, but still no horizon. Then back to the overhead gloom. Only one thing you can count on: The temperature won't feel anything like the forecast. And anything you leave the house wearing will soon be wrong. *
Have driven past this overlook at the I-5 rest area at Birmingham Drive countless times but never stopped. Turns out, it's also on the North Coast Bike Trail we were trying out.
Fuzzy 5x zoom on the white hilltop home at upper right in the first photo. Just think of how many bikes you could keep in a place like that!
Looking south across San Elijo Lagoon while the sun was still out. The lagoon's an ecological preserve closed to all bicycles, but there's a long, beautiful, and very popular MUP along its north shore.
D was looking for a "minimalist" photo to submit to a photography club contest. The concrete maze at the overlook seemed promising. This phone shot doesn't capture the feel, but he got some keepers with the compact digital Nikon he was carrying.
He also sniped a good blackmail shot of my chat with the lifeguard at Cardiff Beach. The gloom was winning at the time.
• Our high-latitude members will find these complaints laughable. But hey, you gotta complain about the hand you've been dealt.

You mean more trouble than usual. That's the problem with beach walks with your wife here: Baywatch wasn't all fantasy. I just try to keep my eyes on the waves.Oh you're in trouble now mate...
