Words to go with the Santa Cruz post

We began our ride yesterday by riding amazing single track right next to the beach. I was in my element, bobbing in and out of the dirt trails with a big smile on my face. I would ride single track all day long; as for these guys, I think they were hurting with their rigid forks and drop handlebars.

The rest of the day was flat and sunny, and the scenery was pretty great too. We saw occasional surfers in the waves below, and I had the Beach Boys playing on my internal jukebox.

We arrived in Santa Cruz early. There we were hosted by Lukas' family friends Mike and Deborah. They own a bike shop in Fresno. I really love their Brompton bikes, which quickly collapsed into a small cube of wheels and metal posts.

We finished yesterday by riding the wooden roller coaster on the board walk. It was awesome! A big thank you to Mike and Deborah for feeding us and putting us up in a hotel.
