mt charleston. not sure what to make of sporttracks elevation. this record appears to be correct. other times, it seems to short the elevation quite a bit. o well, I don’t keep track of it anyway, except to say “good hill day.”

malibu “highland double” 2009. four of us in the group; 2 that had experience and 2 first-timers. both new guys rode well. My nutrition was right and I felt strong throughout. great weather.
On a sad note, one of the participants was struck and killed by a drunk driver. Father/son Rod and Chris Armas were riding together and about to finish the ride at 1am. Both were hit, the 14 year old son survived:

Very sad. If I hear where the memorial/medical funds are to be set up, I’ll update this post with the info.
Rod Armas and son, Chris:
