I had 3 options to choose from this morning - a 7:30 ride with 2 of the guys from the shop ride, the 8:30 ride with 7rider and her small group or the regular 8:30 shop ride. Surprisingly, I chose the earliest ride. I say 'surprisingly' because I have a repuation for sleeping in late on the weekends and missing all the morning rides! Like everyone else has said, the weather was fantastic. Lots of amusing banter back and forth during the entire ride. I ended up doing 42 miles.
