I lucked out with nice weather in So Cal for my visit. These are from 7-22-2018.



^ 7-22-2018. Above Dog Beach in Huntington Beach, CA looking south to the Huntington Beach Pier. Super windy day with wind chop on the waves. I needed /wanted to get in a 10 mile ride for the Global ElliptiGO Riders Club (GERC) challenge.

^7-22-2018. My CA plumeria. These don't grow in CO. They smell so good!

The wind made the beach ride a little tough into the wind. At times I was sand blasted. I really don't like riding there on the flats and constantly people dodging.

Patty, do you have an Elliptigo at both homes or do you drag the one between CA and CO every time?

I have an 11R ElliptiGO at each home. The one in California is from December 2011. It works but has a wobbly head. The one in Colorado is newer and has bright lights for night. I much prefer riding it.

I've been flying back and forth lately. It's a two day drive vs. a 2+ hour flight.

You can drive now. I don't care how many miles you put on the S now!
