Just about ready to go

My car is packed with everything I own that is even remotely biking related. But most importantly I have my bike, and my helmet, and both shoes. Though everything else I have will greatly increase my comfort during the ride, they are technically not necessary. That being said, I triple checked to make sure that I have my gloves, windbreaker, bike shorts, sunscreen, snacks, camera...etc.

I'm counting down the minutes until I can leave work, won't be long now til I'm up in Santa Barbara at our Team in Training pre-ride pasta party.
