RAIN: 160 miles o' fun

Way to go!!! That is truly an awesome feat especially after one year.

Congratulations! How'd those wheels do? The adrenaline from a ride like that must still be pumping.

A friend of mine did the ride also and was hoping for a personal best this time. He's gonna be all full of himself with the speed from the tailwinds.

Thanks! My wheels are awesome. It could just be in my head, but I think they've really contributed to a wonderful year so far. They're especially great on hills. Those old Aksiums were just so heavy.

I'm sure a lot of people set a PR at RAIN this year because of the wind. I actually feel like I cheated a bit, especially given how hard it was last year. I recognize that on any other year, I wouldn't have finished as quickly or felt so strong. But who's complaining? You take your weather like you find i t, right?

I'm already thinking about my next long ride, but I probably won't do anything for now. I have a week long tour in TN to look forward to!. I can see how people start doing longer and longer rides. It's a high.
