Hello all, this is my mountain bike ride from this morning. The shot below is over Palo Alto/San Mateo, CA
The ride was 28 miles and 4,473 feet of climbing. (whew)
GPS data is from a Garmin Vivoactive HR, Wahoo fitness HRM and uploaded to Strava
On the climb up grizzly flat, I saw a banana slug, I think he/she was sleeping b/c the eyes were not sticking out, I don't know... These slugs are quite large...
At the top of the climb was a few horse riders, they were chowing down...
I crossed quite a few bridges
Right after a small stream crossing. It's a jungle atmosphere!
Here is a pretty creek that I rode by with a lot of green ferns and moss.
Took a few seconds of video at the creek
This is Alpine pond in Palo Alto, there is a nature center here as well. Nice an tranquil, a great spot to take a break.
I was a little hungry after burning quite a few calories, so I got a garlic chicken pizza... (I did not eat it all) =)
The ride took you about 3h, so you didn't go to work today? Oh, me dislike the banana slug. But me like the rest. Hahaha

Looks like a nice ride much better weather than in Denmark where we still have winter and freezing weather looking forward to the summer.

We are lucky in northern california to have this weather in February, but we also have droughts/lack of rain water.
