One August, check.





Dateline, Salem. Oregon. 2130. End of another long and winding road. Eyes blurred, nose running, back sore, batteries dead.

Worked the Shasta Summit Century this morning, which for a hearty handful meant 138 miles, with a dangerous dosing of 6% climbing, and for all others a spectacular jaunt around the base of Mt. Shasta. Great stuff. We started at sunrise, did a clover leaf four climbs, then pointed her North again. Although there was the usual issues with California fruit flies and riding East into the sun, it was by all counts, a terrific way to spend the first of August.

We'll take a closer look tomorrow on the new Mac Pro and Cinema display that I am picking up in the morning in Portland. I think we are gonna have another keeper on our hands. Thanks to TC and everybody who helped out over the course of the long day, and congratulations to all.

A few samples fro the 138 miles this morning up, down and around Shasta.

Buona notte.
