My buddy and I got in about 120 miles today in the Los Angeles area. He rode with me to help break in my new 103. Great ride, only a couple of hours, and it was a brisk 58 degrees here today.

Default New Years ride

Started a "tradition" last year to ride 100 miles on New Years Day. Got my 100 in yesterday, so it's officially a tradition now. 37F was the high.
