California MUni Weekend

A bunch of us went down to El Lay for California MUni Weekend, and the NorCal contingent really represented. Jamey had a bunch of $2 bill challenges on hill climbs, and I cleaned up, winning four of them, including one for going straight up Fargo Street (33% grade). Ashley was the only woman to make it up Fargo, and Ricardo and Josh also earned some Jeffersons on climbs.

We also did well in the glory awards, with Josh winning Best Biff for the weekend, and Ricardo winning in both the Best Cliffside Retrieval and Most Broken Unicycle categories (on the same incident, a 200′ drop down a loose hillside).

The riding was fun, especially Friday’s rockfest in Simi Valley. Weather was good for SoCal (would have been better if they had any trees), smog was about normal, and the group was a good size, peaking at 32 riders on Saturday.

Noli’s talking about hosting next year in Seattle. Should be fun!
