I was about to forgo training today, but I got a message from Bill and decided to squeeze in a short, steep ride. Boy, oh boy, oh boy - I think my quadriceps and all four gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, gluteus minims, and the tensor fasciae latae muscles (all 4 together known as the buttocks) were all working overtime today because I gave them only one day of rest from the weekend ride. Of course I'm over dramatizing how these muscles ache, but doing that makes for a better read. I will definitely rest tomorrow especially since my chain kept dropping when I changed from a higher to a lower gear, not too safe when going down hill. So off to Tip-Top tomorrow for another tune-up.

Finally stopped to take in the view
Bill the power house - I couldn't keep up with him.
Gorgeous panoramic view of Inspiration Point in Tilden Park
