I though I moved to California for the weather...
...growing up in Pittsburgh I was always given to understand that California was really warm. I guess it is in comparison to -10F and snowing but... it was COLD today. Still, a group of seven of us rode over early to meet the Spectrum ride. Sean, John, Mike H, Brian, Paul P, Chris P, and me. Good group. The TO guys and I added on Kings Mtn and some extra miles to make it 120 or so. TREO battery is dead so no pic to post with this.

You definitely answered your own question there - I'll take 35F over -10F every day.
Although I was bummed to be essentially shut out of a Sac ride because it was supposed to windy, with maybe freezing rain (in Cali) and up in NorCal (where I was this week) it's dipping below 32F regularly.
There's always "LoCal" as Vanderhoot says - I think it's perpetually 65-70 there in the winter. And Rasmussen has something going with Mexico - Guadalajara is mile-high (altitude camp!) but has highs around 70 all year long - summer and winter. My company just opened an office and a couple weeks office-exchange is both possible and tempting...
All that aside. Great ride. Thanks for towing us along on so much of it. I confirmed that I did get a massive sprint PR on that Hayward sign too, you must have pissed me off getting the jump on me so bad on Union City. Love the pointless sprints ;-)
See you around man
Almost forgot to mention, this ride gets a +1 because we saw a guy riding a bike with A PARROT.
Can't make that shit up.
