Sunday was a fairly hot day so we started at 10 AM at the VASA trail. This would be my 3rd time on the trail and my friend Tom's 1st ride in a looooooooong time.
Volklgirl has the stats, but IIRC we averaged 8.7 mph on the 13 Mile loop.
I only took a few pics, but Volklgirl got a few.
The most important shot I got was this one of her on her SS with purple Streamers!!!!
You shoulda seen her drooooooool
It turns out, Tom has a 12 ish year old GT bike that was pretty good in its day. The first thing VG said when we picked him up at his house..........Sweeeeeeet, Its purple!
The pace that Tom set when we rode was pretty decent for someone who hasn't ridden in a long time. Glad we got him out there. I think we have a new biking buddy!
Thank goodness VG didn't get pics of me climbing the big hills. I'm guessing I had a constipated look on my face, since this was only my 4th time out on the SS and I had to really work it to get the hills. I ended up walking the top parts of three of them.
Here's a nice section of twisties
