Well todays ride was actually pretty easy for the most part. About 65 miles, 18.5 average, 18 riders, three flats and one heck of an attack going up Sanderio road. We were all together when big dave and Company floored it( This road is a gradual climb for about 4 miles). We went from about 18mph to 22 mph and never let up. People were blowing of the back and then Bob attacked Dave and we were up to 25 mph. Yea it was painfull and I started to slip off the back right at the end, but was able to bridge the gap right at the crest of the climb. At the top there was only 5 left and I was crispy. After the group came back together we just cruised in the last 30 miles. I think everyone was a little tired after that effort.

In other news from AZ the monsoons are here in full force. It was very windy last night. Kinda reminded me of Hilton Head Island when a hurricane came close.
