Well that's good. I think I will try them out on the May 1st ride then. I don't know that ride at all, so hopefully I don't get dropped. But, I'm sure I'll find my way if I do. Last time I had looked today and tomorrow were supposed to be really nice, but now the forecast sucks! It looks kind of iffy right now but I think my husband and I are going to go do this 55 mile ride today with 2500 feet of climbing, and then if the weather is okay tomorrow we'll do a 40 mile ride with 2200 feet of climbing. Friday and Saturday look nice so I might just do an easy 22 mile ride each day that will be flat. I don't want to overdo it so close to the 60 mile Daffodil ride. Do you know what type of rides are recommended and how close to a big ride? This is my first year doing training and big rides like that so I don't know. I'm so nervous because I haven't been outside on my bike for two weeks, even though I've been to the gym as much as possible. And I did my 50 mile ride almost a month ago, and since then have only done a couple 40 mile rides! I hope I don't hit a wall at the Daffodil. I also won't be able to do the Cedar Grove ride because I work that weekend, but that is a route I do all the time since it's just down the street from my house (a shorter version), I wish I could do it though!
