Tour de Palm Springs 2018

February 11, 2018.  Some of the Windbreaker crew have returned from a day on the bike participating in the 2018 edition of the Tour de Palm Springs www.tourdepalmsprings.com  
East on Dillon Road


Following an early morning start from Silver Bullets brother's house just off the route start in Downtown Palm Springs, the lads fought the early morning winds north to Dillon Road, then east (tailwinds baby!) through Desert Hot Springs and Sky Valley to Indio; then through the Coachella Valley, La Quinta, Palm Desert,  Rancho Mirage and Cathedral City, before the finish in Downtown Palm Springs.  
At the finish in Downtown Palm Springs


Following 102 spirited miles, it was back to Mike's brothers house for beers, barbecued hamburgers and hot dogs, salads, and Fat Boy ice cream sandwiches for dessert!  

An extra special thanks to the Severin family for their warmth and hospitality taking in and feeding a bunch of road-weary Windbreaker cyclists - RIDE ON!
