Sept 23 rides

[PinkBike]

we missed our saturday shop ride because it was spozed to rain hard (it didnt) so we were totally bummin. we have the hilly tour de scottsdale in 3 weeks and we havent done anything long or hard yet. so while i was at work saturday evening i just decided we could go to tucson (100 miles south) for a training ride sunday morning. they have rides every sunday up until el tour de tucson in november. got on hotwire.com, bid on a $59 3-start hotel, scored the Hilton! so DH got us all ready then when i got off work we drove to tucson. rode 70 miles sunday morning, an absolutely gorgeous day for riding. we got back to the hotel and still had an hour to shower, pack and check out. the Hilton has a noon checkout time, this is the first time we didnt have to pack everything up the morning of the ride then drive home afterwords all stinky. all in all it was an ideal ride!!

Holiday Inn Express gives a late check out of 4:00 to Priority Club members! Just something to keep in mind because nothing beats a good shower before a long drive home.
