Ride Description:
I saw Robert's post on Facebook stating a winter conversation paced group ride at the Comet and thought it would be nice to meet him and some of his friends and ride a few miles. All of them were super nice and very pleasant to ride with. At mile 20 about 4 headed back and the rest of us continued on toward the tunnel. It was really nice chatting with Sam and Sam on the way out. There were two of them a guy and a gal and both very friendly.
Once we arrived at the tunnel I decided, for time's sake, to head back and try to be home when my wife got home to share this New Year's Eve on the couch watching TV like usual. We finish out the year in grand celebration style and stay up until almost 10 pm on some years. The pace on the return was steady at times, but there were a few momentum killers while navigating around some folk.
Bottom line it was nice to finish out the 2012 with this ride and with this group.
My hope is that all my cycling buddies and those that read this blog now and then will be able to rack up a lot of great miles in 2013.
