Yesterday I went with my New Mexico hosts to Carlsbad, NM. First, we took a walk along the Pecos River Ah, Thanksgiving. Yes, I ate too much food. but then I got to walk it off visiting Carlsbad Caverns. If you have never been there, let me tell you it is awe-inspiring. [...]
I love presenting at events an talking to folks, and I love visiting friends. But it’s time to take some solo time and recharge. I’m riding South from Malibu and headed to Anza-Borrego State Park. Never heard of it? Neither had I until I chatted with some local folks. From the web site: http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=638 Anza-Borrego [...]

After my Women’s Tour, Edward met me in Sandpoint, ID, where we spent the holiday weekend with Martha and Kurt of Black Dog Cycle Works. It was really fun for us to ride the 500 miles home together–it’s been a coupe of months since we’d been able to ride together, and it brought up all [...]
