Buffalos an hour from the beach…

65+ miles. Took it up through Highland Valley Road (ugh) to Highway 67 and then Old Julian Highway. Here’s Google maps. Heavy burn area from October. Most interesting sight: Buffalos napping at the Ramona Wildlife Center. Tandems: 0 (too hilly). Honking horns: 0 (too rural). Red lights run: 0 (everyone was mellow).

At the junction of Old Julian Highway and Highway 78 looking west.

Buffalos (yes, really) in the back country of San Diego.

Time for play…

68 and sunny. Old Julian Highway’s the play today. Heading east for mileage and elevation. Shooting to put 75 in the bank, then 100 tomorrow.

Cycling in NYC…

If you live in NYC and pedal two wheels for transportation, here’s an interesting poll on BikeBlog to take. If you don’t live in NYC, it’s still worth a look to appreciate your bicyling opportunities wherever you ride.
