Distance: 40 miles
Avg Moving Speed 18 mph

Group: Craig, Diane, Nancy, Elizabeth, Laurie, Joe, Tim, Alan, and me
Goal: Recreational

The Ride: I rolled out with the gang at 8 a.m. with intention of sharing just a few miles of the 100 mile route they were set to ride. On one hand I really wanted to join them for the full route, but when I turned and felt a fairly stiff wind on the way back I was kind of glad that I was not going to be in that 50 mile battle against that wind.

My cycling day was cut short because I needed to attend a employee appreciation picnic for my wife's company. With a limited time frame I felt it best to push a harder pace and went out ahead of those pacing for the 100 mile route. I did the same coming back and tried to hold a decent pace against the wind.

I hope to hear good news that the gang did well and enjoyed the 100 mile route with everyone returning safely.

I had a few interruptions to my training schedule this week and I hope to be back in the groove this coming week with all the scheduled training sessions.
