Biking & Fondue
Kev and I got a quick ride up in Auburn (I may try to map out the route w/ a profile a little later, don't have the software in front of me at the moment)
Start: 2:20p from the Raley's shopping center off Foresthill Rd
End: 4:30p same spot
Riding Time: 1 hr 51 mins
Distance: 30.1 mi
Ave Speed: 16.2 mph
Overall a good ride, i was feeling pretty slow, i think due to the food i ate before. kev started out strong with a red bull boost, while i warmed up late in the ride. Some good rollers and moderate decents. always like riding in the hilly air.
Route: (start) Forresthill to Bowman North - East on Dry Creek Rd - North on Lake Aurthur Rd - (then we tried going across the fwy at placer hills road and turning north on Bass Lake Rd, but it dead ended..., then crossed over on Orchard and turned up Burgen Rd and it deadended too!) - over I-80 at Orchard - Left on Applegate - Right on W Paoli Rd - left on Ponderosa Wy - turns into Canyon Way - we turned around at Yankee Jims Rd - passed back over fwy at Weimar Cross Rd - right on Placer Hills Rd - back on Lake Aurthur Rd - to dry creek - to bowman - to foresthill. As you notice we're still trying to figure out the routes without a map on hand. the more riding we do up there the more we'll remember!
After finishing up the ride we visited with jonesy and went to the Pack's for some Fondue. It was both kev and my first fondue experience, can't say that i can complain at all. you take some food dip it in some cheese and eat. you take some wine drink a little and smile. you take some food dip it in chocolate and eat. you take some wine drink a little and talk...wash, rinse, repeat...
