Loch Ness Monster Ride

I created a 41 mile route on "Ride with GPS" that Amy, sister Tracy and I followed.  Afterwards, Amy noted the shape of the route and dubbed it the title of this post.  

We passed this on the climb via "Hacienda del Sol" Road.  I have no idea what this is.

We lingered at a CVS to refuel and each of our bikes leaned against a column.  I went inside to buy a drink and managed to miss the "Checkout Nazi" who on my last visit, harangued me about standing behind a line as a person ahead of me was grabbing a receipt and departing.  What would we do without the "Karens" of the world?  I looked at the Karen with a contemptuous look and refused to move. I don't much tolerate stupid people, lol.

The route is quite hilly as I continue to amp up my distance and now climbing.  I'm making progress with my cycling fitness, very slowly but kind of surely. Our temperatures have reached the mid to upper 70's and I suppose I should do the Mount Lemmon climb soon.  Ugh....it just takes a bunch of mental, rather than physical, effort and I'm kinda short in that regard.
