    Did this ride today! 2 laps of climbing. First time up the single track to the summit and 2nd up the road. Me like the single track climb way better. Trail is in great shape, only a couple of hikers and temps were warm but not Tapia Canyon warm! Have a great ride!

    As long as I get a morning climb in, I'm good with some afternoon shuttling.
