It was a perfect day to ride. Almost.
It’s funny how a half-assed training agenda can get so screwed up by one of the most beautiful weather days of any August.
A few days ago I made (yet another) day trip up to Cross Plains, Wisconsin, to ride the hills. This trip was ostensibly part of my preparation to ride down in Georgia a few weeks from now. Well, I got only part of what I wanted, the hills. The other parts I was looking for, hot and humid, were not in abundance. The temps were in the low 80s and the humidity was quite low, which makes for an awesome combination to ride all day long, but it wasn’t what I was looking for!
Give me lemonade and I can make lemons.
Anyway, I rambled around for 71.5 miles up and down and up and down. It was a lot of fun and I think I will be ready to tackle Neels, Wolfpen, and Woody Gaps a few weeks from now. Just need to make sure I have enough water. And plenty of ice cold lemonade.
Can’t wait.

can i be your second cousin removed and go with you? please?
Ha! That would work if this was a family wedding. Say, did you happen to go to a small liberal arts college with a beautiful campus in Memphis? That might get you in.
I'll do the recon and we'll go from there. You just rock the Dare in the meantime.
