Weapons of Moroland

If I'm gonna spend half the day in the saddle, might as well have proof of it.

From this weekend's First Annual Siclista Classic, rockin' the SoCal retro jersey. P.H., what!!!

Climbing Calaveras. Car back. Doh! That's the SAG wagon! SAG Wagon, what!!! (Pic by JohnnyBoy.)

About the Siclistas, they're a Filipino-American cycling group based out of Fremont. This was my first ride with them. Superunleaded from the NorCal group invited me to the ride during the Mt. Hamilton climb. "There'll be a fiesta afterward," he mentioned. Fiesta? No way I'd miss that.

Props to the Luzvimin team for setting the pace up front. (Pack included Maui and Lloyd Reynante, father-and-son from the Philippine national team; Son Lloyd had top 10 Pro/1/2 placings while visiting NorCal.) And thanks to the Team Tropa guys for leading the way back to the start.

From last week's Lighthouse Century along the Central Coast.

Somewhere near Cambria, rockin' the NorCal 08 jersey. Dub-C, what!!!

Climbing Old Creek, somewhere between Morro Bay and Hwy 46. (Pic by mhendricks.)

Descending Hwy 46 to Hwy 1. Sidenote: I had once stopped here several years ago to take in the view after a road trip to SF. Would've never thought I'd be riding a bike past the same spot years later. This pic doesn't do it justice, but from the lookout you can see coastal fog weaved into the local mountains.

We never saw the sun on the coast. Fog was so thick, we couldn't even see the ocean. If you are considering this ride, the hilly route is a must.
