This was a heck of a ride on a variety of roads.
First, the portion on Old Highway 80 was great. Not the smoothest road surface, but almost zero traffic.
Second, on Interstate 8, there was an outstanding and very wide road shoulder for bicycles. This was a heck of a downhill at 6% over 7 miles. We dropped from over 3000 to below 1000.
Third, of the 30+ miles on CA 98, the first 20+ had excellent very wide shoulder. The last 10 miles into Calexico had narrower shoulder, but still a little for most of it. In addition to dropping to sea level, we were helped along by an almost gale force tailwind. This was a fast section.
Fourth…and sadly, when we turned north on CA 111, we were heading into the wind. This was a very slow portion of the ride. Excellent and wide road shoulder the entire way to Brawley.
