Great ride! I saw SK and Bubba and talked to her after - she had a great ride and did 200k (as I told her she COULD). She sounded SO up. Very good!!

I had to "grip it and rip it" on this ride with DH which was basically good. I finished super strong, but had a bit of a lull in the middle. Typical. This was our first ride together of the year and our warm up for the Davis double in 2 weeks. I had some leg cramping (which has been waking me up at night, actually - and that's never happened before - all very odd). Anyway, the ride felt a lot better than last year, though the friend we were riding with bonked big time and we were slower than we'd liked to have been after lunch. DH and I basically did a 2 up time trial for the last 20 miles. It was fun.

I really wanted to stick around longer at the end, but we had some kid issues and had to get back. I did get to meet Deanna who was working the clothes booth. I did not see Nancy, but SK said she had seen her earlier.

Looking forward to a more relaxed ride next weekend....
