This past Saturday Dan and I attempted the summit Saddleback Mountain on our mountain bikes. We didn't quite make it to the top partly due to weather and partly due to the fact that we're old and out of shape. I'll tell you this much, I have not been as cold as I was on the top of that mountain in a VERY long time.
We plan to make another attempt, and next time we WILL make it to the top. We're also planning to bring some mace. According to some guy in a Land Rover, we just missed a mountain lion that was stalking another rider. Apparently the lion came out onto the fire road and was walking right toward the biker when the guy in the Rover came around the corner and started honking. Man, I would not make a ride like that alone.
Whelp ... peace all, and let me know if any of you want to make the second attempt with us in January!
