It was a nice day weather-wise with four riders showing up for the ride (190 miles total ridden).  Fresh pavement on the Truxton Hill Road Climb was a nice surprise (450 ft vertical in the second mile of the ride).  Mark had an excellent suggestion for an alternative route that avoided traffic and limited our time on Route 80 on the way home.  A bit of fog in the higher elevations made things interesting.  No incidents and a fine ride.
