Group Ride 081208
Another group ride is done. Fast. I held on for a long time and was actually climbing really well (for me).
Then I popped. I was so demoralized thinking - Hey I'm going to make it this time....
Then I fired up the Garmin and saw I just set a record for myself on the course. Everyone else just got faster.
I hate pulling into the parking lot within a minute or 2 of the leading group - meaning we were close, but that difference adds up to 1-3mph. Pretty big gap.
Oh well, I never said I was good at this stuff.

We stopped for a latte at one point hoping you’d catch up. After the second round, it was decided we should finish the ride before it got too dark.
Yeah, it was a zesty pace out there.
Don’t burn all your matches before the second rest stop of the DLD! And have fun out there.

From my saddle, you’re pretty damn good.
