ROUTED OUT
I have had to give up my new regular route before it could become boring!
They have closed off one of the main legs to install a new water culvert system. It is needed. I have pedaled through water at that spot.
It will take 6 weeks (maybe).
So I am back at an old standard up into the Andreas hills and have added a new leg, out to the Indian Reservation's entrance to the south canyons. Ten minutes of a very long hill and a ride back down.
A good omen. I saw a jack rabbit out there this morning.
The jack rabbits, unlike the cottontails, are spooked by people and have been pushed back into the wilds as new home construction has gone into that area.
This one didn't like me disturbing its morning constitutional either.
S/he jacked up and gave me a look and a listen with those huge ears. I was past before he could decide to take off.
S/he was a beauty.
