Got into the 90's but by the time I left there were hailstorms all over the radar. I counted on them breaking up and rode my slightly longer way home anyway. It worked, tho' for about a mile I was chastising myself, as the wind started blasting and there was a streak of lightning. Then it abated.
Not one, but *two* cars waited patiently while I went over overpasses, not going by 'til there was ample room. (Red SUV wasn't as nice on the regular road.)
Crossed the 4000 yearly mile threshold :-) :-)
wow 4000 miles Congratulations! When do you have time to sleep? ?
AND glad you didn't become a lightning magnet


Did the club ride tonight, once again a variety of riders from the speedy speedsters, to the speedsters, to the wanna be speedsters, to the tourists

I fell into the wanna be speedster bracket, hung with the speedsters for about a whole 5 miles, hit a few hills and they were gone.

Head wind of about 24 mph for the first 10 miles, Makes you strong

Made it up my measuring stick hill faster than I have ever done ( a little adreneline surging through, I didn't want a couple of friends to catch me - they eventually did about 5 miles down the road

Rest of the ride was great and of course the wind died down to 9 mph by the time the visiting was done

That is what I love about this club. No matter what level a rider is everyone has a great time in the parking lot before and after and the experienced riders help the newbies. Very accepting group
