Davis 12/24 hour time trial

Davis Bike Club's 12 and 24 hour time trial. The goal is to see how far you can ride in either 12 or 24 hours, we picked the 12 hour race. The course follows the Davis Double Century from Winters to Clear Lake and back to Winters. The Day loop is 162.5 miles, (8,000 ft.of climbing). Great event. My first look at the Ultra Marathon Cycling Association, and I like what I see.
.
Official timekeeper called out how many minutes until the time trial start...

.
First rider is off.


.
The big board announces which rider is next. Riders start every 15 seconds.

.
this guy looks fast...

San Francisco dog



We were hanging out in Washington Square in North Beach, noticed this little dog playing fetch. The ball became stuck in the fountain, which you can see in the foreground.

Mt. St. Helens waterfall.

June Lake Falls, Mt. St. Helens. Rob and I hiked all-the-way around Mt. St. Helens in 2005. We began our hike in Cougar, WA, spending the first night at June Lake. I was across the lake with my tripod while rob held this pose for a few shots. I remember him complaining about the cold water. Second picture was taken while we were crossing the Blast Zone.





Night bike

Photograph of a cyclist on the American River Parkway, after dark. I was at the end of my commute, and stopped on the Watt bridge, looking down at the bike path. I strapped my camera to the bridge's handrail and held this shot for a few seconds.
