Cindy dinner and ride reports!

[E2theD]

Hey gals, new to the board and first time poster. I did the Cindy yesterday with a few hardy women and I'll tell you by the end of the ride that patch was one of honor. Our group of 4 started out on the course at 11, pulling up the rear. BikeMomma lead the pack and thank dog because she is one strong rider. Emily sagged back in at the first stop to work the LunaChix tent and the 3 of us kept on. We missed most of the rain but picked up the really strong afternoon wind. At some points I was frustrated but I have to say the great group I was with kept me from ever thinking about throwing in the towel. Can't imagine finishing that ride on my own and can honestly say I had a great time.

The forecast for the day called for 20-30 mile per hour winds and when I got home and watched the news they reported gusts up to 35mph ! I think one of those gusts came close to putting me in the ditch.

Lorri, sorry I missed you at the booth but thanks for sending out my new VG jersey in time for the ride. I wore it proud even if it was under a few layers.

Off for a quick mtb recovery ride now...
