Today was a scheduled rest day and I really wanted to do the optional 54 mile Pope Valley Loop ride. But I didn't want to do it so bad that I'd ride in the rain. And rain we are having all day. Of the 22 participants of this tour, only two chose to ride in the rain. Are they the "true tourists" and the rest of us wimps? Or are they foolish and the rest of us wise? It depends on your perspective. But tomorrow is a different day. There is still a good chance of rain. But there's no option tomorrow, we ride to Sonoma come hell or high water.
So I spent most of the day reading my book - Carl Sagan's, "The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Cradle in the Dark".
Later in the day, our "happy hour" is in Calistoga Cellars' Tasting room.
And then, dinner in the Calistoga Cellars "cottage".
