Jacumba to Brawley - 66.5 miles


Yesterday was a small chain ring day and today was a big chain ring day. Well, for part of it. We started out with a 5.5 climb, then a 10 mile decent of 3,000 feet! The rest of the ride was mostly flat but horrible headwinds. Then a few miles before we reached Brawley we were below sea level. The photo above is of Holly Sugar plant and there is a marker in blue on the first silo showing the sea level. Some of the towns we rode through were Seely, El Centro and Imperial.

I spent 3-4 days in El Centro when I worked for the Government. I'm sure it has changed since then.

I have been having trouble sending you e-mails, they keep coming back. Please send something to me so I can check my e-mail address.
All is well back home.

Pedal, Pedal, Pedal just rember that even though I'm not there I might sneak up at any time. Think of me on that day that you just don't want to get on your bike.
