70-mile bike ride to coast

I just got back from a 70-mile bike ride from Mountain View (California) to Pescadero Beach and back! The longest ride I'd done until today was 40 miles. I rode with seven co-workers from Google. This is roughly the route we took. It was a beautiful day, and the company was great. I wore biker shorts and a jersey for the first time, and I put two water bottles and a comfortable seat on my bike. I was on my mountain bike for my last long ride, and I find a road bike much easier.

I wish I had pictures of today! I would have had a beautiful shot of the whole group with the beach in the background. I need to buy a pouch to put under my bike seat, so that I can bring my camera. I also need to get a windbreaker that I can stuff in my jersey pocket, because I was cold on some descents. I should get biking shoes, too, but I was pretty comfortable in my sneakers, today.
