We are in the middle of a heat wave in Southern California. Amber and I rode my Seal-Beach to Duarte loop permanent which is about half of my Five Rivers 300k brevet. I had expected it to be warmer than three weeks ago when I rode the brevet, but it was 91 degrees Fahrenheit in Duarte. Oh well, I said I needed flat hot miles and I got them.
We finally got to eat at the pizza place next to the 7-11 in Duarte and it was better than I expected. We had a portion of cheese bread and an enormous calzone for only $8.50. They only take cash though. The inside looks pretty sleazy and none too clean but they have an A rating and we didn't get sick. I recommend this place if you have cash, you're hungry, and you're not trying to impress anyone.

Six hours and eight minutes (the pizza place is pretty slow). I'm dehydrated and hyponatremic. I have a lot more training to do before I'm ready for Florida.
