| Comments: Club ride through Red Rock Canyon with four other riders. I held back on the first part of the ride so when we came to the biggest hill I didn't fall behind as much as other rides. In past rides I was slower than today. I feel good. |
| Weather Conditions: Perfect temp to start at 66°. Winds were low until near the end where I had to work hard to do 26 mph on the downhill. I usually do 30 there with less effort. |

Comments: Mountain's Edge solo. Midway my chain slipped off as I was climbing. I fell over, but the worst was my steering was off. Two motorists stopped to help. I was able to straighten my steering and continued.
Strong effort. |

| Comments: Club ride McRide with four others. They cut the ride short, but I went about four and a half miles further, yet almost returned as fast as they. It was supposed to be a recovery ride, but turned into a race. I'm wiped out. I think a bit dehydrated. But I did a good workout. |
| Weather Conditions: Light winds. Warm start and almost hot by the end. |

Comments: Club ride to Jean with seven standard speed riders and five or six fast riders.
I did OK, but stayed with a slower rider half of the way on the hills. We stopped for a rider with a flat, but couldn't fix his tubular tire leak.
I had a flat just getting to the start, then another as I got to Jean. Repairs got me home.
Oh, I stayed with slow rider on the way back for about 8 miles. |
