Hurray – Yeah! After a morning climb up the “Evil Twins” we arrived at the “Half Way 2 L.A.” point with the sun out and beautiful, clear weather. Great for lots of photos and celebration.<\/p>\n

Afterward there was a long, very enjoyable descent then on into Santa Maria for the night. Today’s journey was 98 miles which I did in 9 hours and 15 minutes, a “short” day time wise so I could leisurely put up the tent, eat dinner, then back for seconds !<\/em><\/strong>, shower, and set out my red dress outfit for tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow — Red Dress Day!<\/strong><\/p>\n

I soaked in the agriculture and coast scenery the first 20 miles. Talked with a young cyclist about how current 20 and 30 year olds perceive AIDS, protease inhibitors, and how HIV affects\/effects their lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
