Protocol: Double paceline when conditions allow, jam as hard as you like on the climbs, occasional sprint OK, soft pedal for an in-flight regroup when we get separated

Route highlights: Old La Honda, 84E, The Maze, Godetia, Portola, Arastradero
Canada is a good road to practice a double pace line, remind me!

Regroups: First stationary regroup will be at the bottom of OLH, remind me to call out the next regroup at each one!
