Around mile 75 I ramp it up to 28/30mph and split the group. 3 others stay with me and soon the rest are out of sight. About 20 miles later we're down to a group of three. We have a climber, a navigator and I take the flats and downhill's and we manage to stay away and bring it home in a little over 6 and a half hours of ride time averaging 18.7 mph. It was a really nice day to ride, I just hope I saved enough to do this again tomorrow! Time for some recovery drinks. > >tim-- >You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >"CyclistsOfWilson-COWs" group. >To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. >To unsubscribe from this group, send email to >[email protected]. >For more options, visit this group at >http://groups.google.com/group/cyclistsofwilson-cows?hl=en. >-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CyclistsOfWilson-COWs" group.
