My husband and I did the HHH in 2005. It was our first ride. The temp. that day was in the 70's. It took us 8.5 hours. We are 47 and 50 years old. I loved the ride. The rest stops were great. Everyone was VERY nice and friendly! We plan on doing it again this year. I know we will not be as lucky as last year as far as the weather is concerned. I'm sure it will be in the 100's this time.
