2026 Diablo Day 48

Much cooler than Wednesday. I felt good and opted for a fast Junction.

Wildlife Encounter:  big flock o' turkeys and a deer with cute little horns near the tire poppers.

Roadkill Report:  a deer foot about a half mile below the kiosk... suspiciously close to where Charlie and I smelled something rotten on Wednesday.  I looked for it on the way down so I could get a good photo, but didn't find it.

Fastest Junction time of the year.





I appreciate a good show-off. This guy passed me easily and then
sat up to zip his jersey while still accelerating. 

This looked to be a father-son training ride. Son was impressively skilled and strong, needs a little more saddle time for that pro suplesse, but he could be the next Pogacar.



The deer foot.

Chewed to the bone.
