Longer rides on tap Nov-2 / Nov-8

Good week overall of riding i think i logged about 160 miles, i did a 50 mile ride on Mon while A manda took her nap after work. I did a mtn bike ride on wed up the power line rd around Temecula it was real nice out not to cold yet and a full moon made it nice. Friday i road the same road bike loop out to french valley that i road last Friday and Sat morning i meet up with Johnathan from Jax bike shop and did there mtn bike ride out at Santa Rosa plateau fun beginner type ride they had about 10 riders show up we ended up with about 12 miles on the normal trails we did see a good size bobcat cruising thru the main area on the way back to the cars.Sunday i road around lake Elsinore counter clock wise the grand prix was going on all weekend i stopped and watched for a short period of time, boy that brought back allot of memories of my motocross days. After getting back to Clinton Keith I was still feeling pretty good so i headed up to the plateau and down into de luz let me tell you boy there is some seriously steep hills back there. I headed home thru Rancho cal rd great ride over 55 miles and 3.5 hrs later i was back home after a wick shower i joined Amanda for a well deserved nap.Hopefully these less intense longer rides will help me build up some endurance.Next weekend Amanda finally has a weekend off so we plan on doing some more ring shopping and spending some quality time together.
