Natural Bridges to New Brighton Beach out & back

In keeping with the French theme we did this ride on our 1971 Gitane Super Corsas. A great day to noodle around at the coast - light breeze, perfect temps. We stopped and had a late lunch at our usual in Capitola - My Thai Beach. Excellent as usual... Both of the Gitanes held up well and I noticed the smaller blue one was coasting a lot behind me and then passing me up a few times, hmmm. I better check my hubs & rims...
