Solo ride

I headed up Hwy 9. It warm in the sun, but a little chilly in the shade. I got to the bottom of Jamison Creek at 10:24 and felt relatively good going up, and got to the top at 10:48, for my best time since 2008. It was a little chilly in the shade with the breeze from the descent at first on Empire Grade. There was a crowd of cyclists and tables at the top of Pine Flat. I think it was part of a fund-raiser for the Tour of California stage 3, which includes a climb up Bonny Doon Rd. It was warmer and sunnier on the lower part of Empire Grade.
