Today was introductions, orientation, tire changing practice, and a celebration of the May birthdays. On the tour we have 20 guests, 13 men and 7 women. 5 are from the UK (4 English and 1 Scot) and one is Italian. Most have ridden a lot, some not so much. Everyone is eager.

Tomorrow we start early to ride to Manhattan Beach where we dip our wheels in the Pacific and ride east. If you want to watch the action live (and honestly, who doesn’t?) go to the Manhattan Beach Pier webcam at

We will be there from about 8-8:30 Pacific Time.

I’ll wave.
