First sag wagon ride today. Temp over 100. I hydrated and DH pulled the first 25, but I just ran out of juice. At mile 43 of 53, pulled over to check mileage to the next rest stop and drop some more electrolyte tablets in my camelbak, when the van appeared like an oasis! LET ME IN!
We had a "Kevin Bacon 5 degrees of separation moment." Five people in the van--all sag virgins. Two went to college together and were in the same sorority (what are the odds!), 2 were in finance, two worked at the same company but didn't know each other, two of us live in the same suburb (I drove an hour to this ride!). Small world.
We pulled into the parking lot right in front of my husband. The van driver said, "Where's your car! I'll dump you out so he'll think you beat him!"
I've been talking about volunteering at a ride, and now I WILL! Thank you Trailnet Sag wagon!
