Day One: San Francisco to Santa Cruz: 29 Sep 2007

Saturday, September 29

READY…SET…PEDAL!! We started at the Host hotel after breakfast then cycled down the coast into Santa Cruz, completing a total of 75 miles.

The weather was BEAUTIFUL!! Cool, crisp, sunny, and NO FOG! We have great pictures of the Golden Gate bridge and along our route.














I clocked in a maximum downhill speed of 48 mph down the Devils' Slide.

When we came to Half Moon bay, I glanced at the ocean and it looked like God has floated aqua crystals on the ocean and they all simmered as the sun danced on them.

We met a woman doing the ride who works for AIG, my new employer! She loves working for AIG. In fact, AIG is thinking about sponsoring a team for this event next year!
At dinner in camp Dave and I sat at a table of 5 other Daves! Not planned.
