First rest stop, free bubbles. Nick's got plenty of air to spare.
Kevin forgot his Wheely Cool jersey this morning. tsk tsk.

I always take a picture of the vines. There are a lot of them.
We found Steve at the next rest stop stuffing his face with peanut butter covered bananas.
Dino's really happy to be in the potty line.
Don, K.T. and Nick are surely talking about science.
Don doesn't realize it, but his bike is a Wheely Cool color.
Nick and Kevin enjoying the Napa weather.
These four guys had a nice paceline, so I latched on to them for a couple of miles.
The last rest stop is the lavishly decorated Tiki Shack.
