200 Quest 2024 (Part 2)
Little did I think back in the mid-80s when I did my first double-century, that I would be able to accomplish 200 doubles in my lifetime. After all, I did say "I am never doing this again", after my first one. Go figure....look at me now. As I write this, I am already over the 200 mark but they are not all official " California Triple Crown " double centuries. I have completed 197 California Triple Crown Doubles including the one I am writing about here. My hope is to finish the final 3 in 2024. I am not quite sure where my 200th will be at this point but I hope to do it before the Triple Crown Awards Breakfast in September. I want to do it close to home so my family and my friends can be a part of the ride. First up for the year, and completed, was The Camino Real Double. My plan to do The Mulholland Double this year fell by the wayside as I only finished the first-century portion of it. I just wasn't feeling it, so I called it quits early.
