Rivendell

I know it's been a long time since my last mileage update, so here it is: as of May 31, I was 5328.288 miles from Bag End and had left Isengard for the return trip to Bag End.

LA River Ride 2009

Crashed and burned. I don't know what I did wrong, but I only made it to the second pit stop, the one right after we get off the streets of Vernon and back onto LART. Just a hair under 18 miles, when I should have been able to easily do the half century, and probably a metric century! I was also disappointed to see that they didn't have the bike-wheel arch out this year. No pics of the starting/ending point at the Autry Museum in Griffith Park (near the LA Zoo), but here are a few pics of things I saw along the way, including an Xtracycle at the Maywood Pit Stop.
