This confirms that my decision to do a solo ride today was the right choice. I did Tilghman/Lake Wilson/58/Packhouse (they are still paving)/Bloomery/Hornes Church/Stoney Hill Church/581/Old Raleigh/Airport/Tilghman for 36 miles at an 18.9 average. Stoney Hill Church was particularly tough with the constant climb and crosswind. It has a deceptive 100 feet of climbing over it's 4 mile length. Had a lot of fun riding even in the heat/humidity.

Dude named Clayton who is a student at U of F and on the cycling team saw my post today and contacted me about the ride. He is passing through on his way to NJ and wanted a few miles. We met up at Checkers. I was not sure what to expect since he said he was on the team. He had a nice Ridley and the U Of F team kit. We set out for the same route Tim and I did last week. Both of use had our share of pulls in the beginning but ended up riding double talking a lot of the middle and picked it up more at the end. We finished with 35 miles at 21.3. I know how great the roads are in Gainesville since I have visited few times and took my bike but hearing him talk about it made me so jealous.

DC, Kaiser, and I left DD at 8:30 for 30 or so miles. DC pulls out first, sane pace to DQ then he gets in the drops, at Packhouse I hear the click of a gear shift and it is on. W Hornes and Liles, wind much stronger than the 6 mph forecasted. Stoney hill ch to pace, pick up,the wind again, left on 264, then old Smithfield. Tailwind the rest of the way. DC lets it out and at 31 he pulls away as if we weren't there. Kaiser rests up and pulls hard from bloomery back to DD.
I try to,hang on and do my best domestique ride.
Not NASCAR but certainly Sprint Cup ride for 32 miles, 19.9 avg, couldn't quite push over the 20 mark.
Great day to be on the bike,
Jim
