Hi Barb,
Sounds like PALM was lots of fun. Seems that I am always working during the dates of that ride. I am signed up to do the 4 day east DALMAC and I am no where near ready for it. I need to get in some serious long training rides in before then. I try to do the route with the most hills on it during my regular 20 mile week-night rides. But I know that my hills don't even start to compare with those monsters up north. My daughter, son-in-law and two thirteen year old Grandsons are also doing this ride. Hubby will be driving our own personal sag vehicle if I need to call him to rescue me, but I sure would like the bragging rights to say I rode the whole route without calling him.
(p.s. Hubby will take alternitive routes and meet up with us for lunch, ect. I know that extra cars on a ride route is not a good thing!)
