OK, where did my weekend go? I need a weekend from my weekend. The BC does Hillsborough Bikefest Saturday. Pete, Dave W., Jonathan, Susan, Mike Tandy and I have a pre ride party Friday evening then ride 63 miles Saturday with 800 other cyclist. Great rest stops with tons of fruit including pineapple, peaches, cantaloupe, and regular items like PBJ sandwiches & homemade Choc. cookies plus lots of other stuff. The calories all equaled out. Our group stayed together and had a great time with no mishaps and everyone finished strong. Temps were nice and only heated up near the end. Susan had lots of positive feedback on her CoW jersey. Great job Cynthia!
John o. and I ride with 5 others from Benson to Tar Heel today for 126 miles. A 300K weekend for me, all on the single speed bike. I rode most of the day with a mom and son team and we paced 18 to 20 mph most of the ride. John stayed with us until late in the ride before wanting to take it a little easier. Choc. milkshakes at Andy's, mile 85 cooled the engine nicely, oh yea, whip cream and cherry to boot. Our friend Jerry caught our group there and we played tag from then on. I had him marked with 4 miles to go when the cramps hit, both pistons seized up and I had to let him go. Maybe I should have left that pitcher of Margarita alone Sat. evening. Great ride though we finished in 92 degree heat. Highlight was 7 min. spent in the walk-in beer cooler at mile 112. tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CyclistsOfWilson-COWs" group.
