Sunny Saturday Part One

Saturday was like summer. Gotta get it while you can. JLaw hadn't ridden more than 65 miles this year and wanted to add a pre-loop to the three-loop, then a post loop to get a century in. To be sure I was warmed up I went out for a pre-pre-loop at 5:30AM.

The 7:15er was packed. Just a small sampling of the folks that showed (--->)






C-C-C-C-Colors were everywhere. In the trees and on the riders.











Super Sally and DoubleM.







Legs felt good for the first time since Texas 3 weeks ago. JLaw flatted at the end of loop 3. Other than that his century went off without a hitch. Probably 112-115 miles for me, but who's counting?

Then it was off to YRSP for some MTBin'. Gotta make hay when the sun shines.

Head-count (all numbers are purely approximate until verified by our accountants)

Pre-Pre Loop : 1
Pre Loop : 4
7:15 TriPower Loop : 50-60
8:30 Conte's Loop : 50 or so
9:20 Blue Moon return loop : 20-30 Pretty spread out by then.
Post-Loop : 2

The wind blew harder as the day went on, temps topped out in the high 70's SWEEEEEEET. Tan lines in November. I understand the power of the IronCross socks, but the toe-warmers? Oh Art.



RideOn
