Day 5 into Ventura

O.M.G.- a day 5 to live and love forever. The climbing from Solvang was amazing, the old Stagecoach road hosting us winding stream of red blood cells ever upwards. And then the San Marcos descent, looking down over ranked decks of agriculture to the sea - that was amazing too. As was the twisty, turny Mountain Drive route across the top of Santa Barbara and into Montecito. Great fun day.

Then it was FF Dinner time - where we show why we are doing the ride. Can't believe it's almost over... :( We celebrated little 14 yr old FFW legacy Lucie, the daughter of my FFW friend Mick, who rode her first full day with the Westies. We cried, we sang, we had our hearts in our sleeves. Just got the last "For those who suffer...we ride!" morning chant to go....
