Description
An interesting day – I parked at Alpine and Portola Rd and sauntered up Alpine to catch the Noon Goons at the top of Alpine, but today was Corte Madera day, when they just turn right onto Portola Rd – oops! So, after realizing I had missed the boat, I sped over to Robert’s Market via Portola Rd and Mtn Home, but did not see the group – so I figured they must have gone onto Whiskey Hill (correct!) and back onto Portola Rd to head back to Alpine (also correct!) – so I high-tailed it back on Mtn Home to Portola Rd and got to Alpine Rd, where I hooked back up with the group (but, missed the Corte Madera loop). Then, I rode conservatively with the remains of the group (which consisted of the strong climbers) and stayed with them back to the start on Foothill – this time I rode smart and positioned myself quite well for the sprint – and got 2nd in the finishing sprint – wooooohooooo!!! So, I can sprint with the big boys, if I am well rested and ride smart and position myself just right – but at least, I can do it – and on a Tuesday, no less! Yeeeeehaaaawww!!
