| Comments: Club ride "McRide" with eight other riders. Second ride with new bike. Getting used to it. Extending the leg reach helped. Getting used to the seat, but it makes my right thumb numb, and left arm gets tired. Part due to scoliosis. |
| Weather Conditions: "Cool" 70's to start. Felt cool. Light winds. |

| Comments: To Starbucks to meet with Gene. Added a few more miles and came home. Third cruise on new bike. Made more adjustments and it is a lot better. Made leg length longer, and put foam pad instead of Ventisit pad. If I could get the handlebar lower it could be set. |

| Comments: RTC Viva Bike Vegas Gran Fondo. First century on new carbon bike. Climbs way better than Strada. Used latex tubes and could get spoiled. Absorbs bumps better and grips better. I think it does give lower rolling resistance. |
| Weather Conditions: Start at 76° with no wind. Beautiful day with very light winds until we topped Red Rock Valley. Had a 10 to 15 mph wind there. Started getting warm about ten miles to finish. |
