| Comments: 1st ride on Carbent in a while, did better than I would have guessed after not too many miles lately. Standard 41 mile Buckeye ride. As per usual, more headwind than tailwind (none) but wasn't too horribel today. Forest fire smoke in the air a bit. Cad:75, ATemp:71F, Vert:1,000' |

| Comments: Last Rawhide as a FoCO resident? (technically already moved to Littleton). 1st ride on Q3 with 35mm tires. COuldn't tell if it was materially slower, definitely not much smoother on the shitty bike path. Felt like minor headwind up and then down the valley but only 5-10 mph? Started accidentally with the FoCO Fondo from New Belgium. ONly rode 1st 2 miles but was controlled speed slower than I would normally have gone. Significant pedal issues in middle of ride. BOTH pedal were releasing at slighest bump, but appeared to get better by end of ride. ATemp:81F, Vert:1,260', Cal:1,876 |

No possible way to do any speed when worried of crashing during every feet. Was some serious cyclorcross touring on all surfaces. Sippo Trail was the worst!! HORRENDOUS gravel and paved trail!!!

| Comments: Day 4 OTET; Mt. Vernon to Columbus in a thunderstorm and in the middle of Sunbury marathon! No such thing as an easy OTET ride!! Thunderstorm started right as we started dodging marathon runners... VERY sketchy at times. Then had to go thru suburban Columbus to Alum Creek trail. Had to reroute due to flooding Alum Creek, then try to ride as fast as reasonable during thunderstorm to outrun flooding creek, VERY sketchy! Arrived at Alyssa's totally soaked and mentally exhausted. Vert:700', ATemp:69F, Rain was warmish but I'd get cold when stopped. |

| Comments: Day 5 OTET: Columbus to Xenia. Alum Creek trail still wet with standing water, but creek receeded from yesterday. Still had several navigational challenges from Garmin/GPS which was infuriationg at times. Very slow going thru the city and subburbs. Massively lost at Darby Park as paved trail went to gravel with NO signs and NI GPS info! Went back up big hill before finally getting GPS info. Ride got better until I got to Xenia when I fell over at 0 mph on a curving hill with 0 momentum. That REALLY pissed me off after all the cyclocross we rode until this point wothout going down. Pulled Payton at a measured pace from London to Xenia. Vert:1300', ATemp:80F, no cad! |

| Comments: Day 6 OTET; Xenia to Yellow Springs, then to Dayton. Due to unknown detour in Morrow, we brevely ran away from the original 71 mile route to Cinci and rode to Payton's instead. A billion stops thru Xenia to Yellow Springs, then left knee got VERY sore on climb into YS. Couldn't walk at top. Decided to head back to Payton's, knee slowly got better as terrain was flat/descending. We were both physically and mentally tired. I was mentally tired from all the navigational issues.

Comments: Mountains to Desert 26 from Norwood to Gateway on a beautiful morning. Minimal wind at start and maybe a tailwind at end in Gateway? Felt VERY slow on hills, but 50x10 gear had higher speed before spun out. Was this the fastest year? Felt slow on hills but made it up Donkey Rock Climb without being wiped out. Maybe the Cleveland to Dayton ride helped? Felt good overall, came in 2nd by 9 minutes. Yo-yo'ed with a skinny couple at the start before 3 de-layering stops and then a dropped chain outside Naturita. Great ride overall! Vert:1480', Decent: 3,880', Cad:75, ATemp: 57F
