Great ride report!
I will add to that: readily available bananas and oranges;
lots of good karma among fellow riders;
way more free food than I knew what to do with;
VERY impressed with route markings after yesterday's weather. About halfway through I just stopped looking at my ride card altogether -- no big loss, as the odometer wasn't working anyway;
and +1 on the goody bag. I love a goody bag that has stuff I will use.
Have you tried the heat pack yet? DH is loving it; his shoulders are all clenched up from the last week at work.
And to think that if I had stayed home I would have dejectedly looked out the window at those gray skies, but it was plenty bright while we were out there, if a bit overcast and sprinkly.
Did anyone do the Burly Girl ride?
