Covering 38 of the 58 miles assigned to the tour.
Upon my arrival at the ride start, Bruce said he almost gave up on me(showing). However I did arrive before the ride start. I was 9th to sign in. A good crowd had already assembled. There was one more arrival after me making the group a tenner! These folks were all hot gun fast, with most having hi-dollar bikes, except for me and a women who quit before we got to GVP.
A great ride with fantastic weather. Made great time, though nowhere near as quick as the main group. A very competitive group it was too! They were able to pull away everywhere but downhill. Feeling so good I did not need any stop-over along the way. I was able to play "Rabbit" for the main group, especially the 4 fastest riders. Not needing any rest stops, I passed them twice along the route. It seemed they worked extra hard to catch and pass me between their rest-stops.
I was quite happy with my output and was managing a faster time than a previous effort. Following the route with my Garmin Edge 200, I was nearly 12 minutes ahead of a previous average. My post ride weight was 239.6 -a long way from the 220's Doc Peterson would like me to reach.
With so much to do at home, I decided to abbreviate my participation. I covered a bit more than half the ride.
