Just arrived in Solvang for 4 days of riding! I am so excited! Kevin and I flew into LA, then we drove up the coast stopping in Santa Monica, lunch on the pier in Malibu, which was fabulous, a quick drive through Santa Barbara, then arrived in the cutest little dutch down, Solvang.
The hotel is nice so far, although more of a motel and unfortunately we talked to the chef in the restaurant and didn't feel that she really understood the seriousness of Celiac disease, so instead of risking it, we opted for grocery shopping making sandwiches in the room. Looks like we will be eating a lot of sandwiches this week. Oh well, tis life for us.
I am feeling a little under the weather, but with the sunshine and the terrain, as soon as I start pedalling I know I'll feel a million times better instantly! I should be getting my gear on right now, it is a littler cooler than I had hoped, sitting at 4 degree's right now. I hope it warms up quickly as we didn't bring our winter riding jackets or winter tights. Nonetheless this is going to be awesome! We will be riding some Trek 6.5 Madones with Ultegra DI2, soon I will find out if I prefer Shimano DI2 or the ever faithful SRAM Red groupo. As for the frames, I will be comparing my Cannondale Evo to a Madone 6.5. With the new Kammtail on the Madone, it is suppose to be a pretty nice riding bike. So we shall see! Okay I really need to get my gear on!
