Sunday Riding

Showed up at meeting point around 6:40 and just watched the darkness and water pound the car. I was pretty sure nobody would show up. I was kinda hoping noboby would show up. It was in the 30's and raining kinda hard. So, of course the Bonk King showed up and was amped to go. Then T.J. (our new PaPa), showed up and I thought he was still sleeping. So, we saddled up and rode in complete misery weather. After a while I was warming up but started to feel the water infiltrate my covers and boots. Nothing really stops the water. I had decided to ride my steamroller and get some fixed gear miles to wake up my dormant legs. Bonk King was aboard his Salsa and T.J. on the All City spacewhore. So, it was a QBP type of morning. We rode 23 miles and I was happy with the effort. We did campton hills rd and it felt like a baseball bat hitting me. The rest of the day was spent going in and out of Zombie state. It did not help that it was daylight savings. Thanks to my comrades for coming out. Of course later on that morning it stop raining for a good while. Lucky those that did not ride early morning.

Excellent job, gentlemen! Hopefully, warmer temps and dry conditions will begin soon. I remember Campton Hills Road well--no matter the weather, it always hurt.

Hard rides pay dividends. You all won just by being out there. Awesome!

I wouldn't have been out there if it wasn't for my Fungus dudes.
