Bakersfield

Back in Bakersfield for the third time this year and surprisingly it's quite warm (well not that big of a surprise). I'm back here with my coworker for another bike tour. It's the Spooktacular that I attempted last year and got rained on for the 3rd time in 2007 so only finished slightly less than 100k. The weather this year is excellent and should be quite warm as the morning chill wears off. My previous visits to Bakersfield were in May as I was passing through to camp along the Kern River to do some fishing for Memorial day and again for my friend's graduation from college.

I hadn't planned on attending because I'm picking my girl up from SFO on Sunday morning and figured my counterpart wouldn't be leaving till Sunday morning to go home. Turns out he's leaving after the ride so works out perfectly. Though I haven't been riding so not sure how tomorrrow will go, but I'm going to attempt the Horrible 100 once again and will do my best...here it goes!

Now if I could just get my iPod to finish syncing then I could go to bed!
