Today's Ride

Re:

Hey tintin-that's cool-we, like you, have only one poisonous snake-ours is the Rattlesnake. I took a pic of one last year on a ride . We almost ran over it on Shaver Grade and I posted it onto Today's Ride that day. Definitely to be given a wide berth :) Today-Saturday-Hotter out, about 80 F. and a little humid. I hooked up with two friends and they wanted to go up pretty much the same route I went up yesterday, who am I to argue? So up we went-around here, there is nothing but up...
