I don't remembered when was the last time I woke up at 5AM for a ride, but I did it again, on the early morning of 10.10.10!
AIDS/LifeCycle 10 training ride season officially kick off this morning in Manhattan Beach. Everyone, regardless of returning/veteran riders or the first time newbies, was excited about the ride. In order to make the ride more 'rider friendly' and relaxing, both routes were pretty short and flat - 21 miles and 14 miles respectively.
I was really happy to catch up with many friends whom I've been missing for the past year. I would love to do more rides in the coming months, regardless of joining ALC 10 or not.
