Pedal Wench, My decision was based on the forecast as well. I could not imagine being out there when conditions got worse. That's why I turned around and back tracked when I heard the thunder.
Nanci, I think we ride in some of the same circles. I haven't done the Tour de forts since the route changed. In the past we could ride over the beautiful Dames Point bridge. There was always a snow cone stop in the parking lot of the ferry. Oh, those were some good snow cones. I met some great people on that ride whom I still love to bump into on rides. Are you doing Swampman?
Glad BF is okay SkiBum. s

Just got my official time 5:37:12. My computer shows 5 hours, so I wasn't dinking around as much as I thought- I thought my non-riding time was one hour, but couldn't figure out where. I stopped briefly at two sags, then once on a climb to eat, ond once on a descent for five minutes to let my forearms rest.
