Ride Description:

The first five miles from the zero mile marker were heavy with multitudes finally enjoying warmer weather and no rain. Once I was a bit beyond the pace picked up and from there it was a nice cruise out to the twenty mile marker. A guy jumped on my wheel about mile 16 and gave me a nod of the head and thumbs up for the brisk pull. 

On the way back a couple of random guys tried to jump on my wheel, but I guess could not hold on. Back at the 4 mile marker it was getting heavy again so I had to slow at times for safety. It was kind of sad to end the day with just 40 miles since it was so nice out and because I missed yesterday due to travel.
