Winter bike training trip day 3

Wednesday
Miles driven =329
miles riding = 26
hours in the seat =1:48
As I sit here in the campground I can hear the waves breaking on the beach a couple hundred feet away. It has cooled of as the sun went down, but was a nice day with the temps in the seventies again. I woke up in San Francisco, and drove to Carpinteria. I checked into the campsite, setup the tent, and went for a ride.


Another day of hills, not a lot of flat roads to ride on. So even though I didn't get a lot of miles, the legs did get a good workout. One stretch was about a mile of 12% grade. Maxed the heart rate on that one. Nice area withe lots of avocado trees. I know because I had to keep dodging them.
Tomorrow I'll head down near Oceanside
