On Tuesday 15 March 2005, visibility improved substantially enough to justify a bike trip to the seaside village of Malibu. It was roughly a 30 mile bike ride from my residence in Gardena. Temperature was in the low 70s and winds were blowing from the ocean (west) roughly 10 mph. The total trip was 6 hours with total stoppage time ~ 1 hour for rest breaks and photographic sessions.
