Sacramento 666

Today was the shortest ride of the tour so far. A quick jog up to Sacramento. 17 miles in 1 hour 18 minutes. Quite hot, but breezy. We left around 1 in the afternoon after a nice breakfast at the Delta of Venus. We played a set on the porch of this fine establishment yesterday evening. It was lots of fun, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover that their food was FANTASTIC. They took great care of us. I highly recommend stopping in if you ever find yourself in Davis.

I stopped in at this music store to buy a bow quiver for my bass.



Boo got inspired and bought this Raleigh so she could ride with us.



Squeaky clean brand new bike!



This nice bike path stretches toward Sacramento in between the 80 freeway and a pair of railroad tracks.



We met a local named Pxl who guided us from Davis to Sacramento on his fixed gear bicycle.
