NBW Hope Valley Western Ride

I thought this stretch of RT 3 heading back to the start was all down hill, WRONG!

After climbing another killer hill, I decided to rest here for five minutes.

Grape vines galore at this winery.

One of the first of many hills today.

My god, can you say hills? I can't recall a ride of this distance (40 miles) with so many hills. The weather was cool and windy at 8:45 when I started, but did warm up to 58 degree's by the end of the ride.
