Here's a picture of me doing the Rosarito to Ensenada 50-mile ride in 1995...
And then in 1996 riding in the 20-mile ride on Miramar Naval Airstation, which ends up being like a time-trial. That was one of the last organized rides I did. But the next one will be this July 4th! I'm doing the 50-mile Scripps Ranch Old Pros July 4th ride. You can check out the ride website at Scripps Ranch Old Pros
