Temp, weather, and wind was very pleasant as we headed out on 58 to Packhouse, Bloomery, Horns Ch., Stony Hill out towards the hills of western Wilson, Nash, Johnson counties. Hardees in Bailey was our breakfast/refueling stop. After discussion about our continuing trek, I decided to minimize chances of cramps by adding Pedialyte to my second water bottle as I knew the hills and fast pace was coming. A slight headwind began to as we heated toward Connor hill. Then, WOW, Wheeeeeeee, Whee, Wheeeee and Steve takes the green jersey at a top speed of 37.2 (what was in that biscuit he ate). After many hills and turns (don't remember the road names), getting lost a couple of times, but finally finding our way back to Sandy Hill Church Rd, over to Old Smithfield. By then the tailwind had picked up a bit and Dave pulls us back to Hornes Ch Rd in record time. Steve needed to be home by 11, but with 50+ miles in everyone was still strong and the tailwind was so much fun, we crossed Hornes to keep the tailwind a while longer. At some point several dogs ran out to chase us, but when they saw who it was and how fast we were riding, the dogs gave up and turned back. A great ride, 24.3 mph for 67.2 mi. and Steve made it back before 11. And I never did cramp.

Susan doing Heart Walk, may ride with Jennifer early afternoon. I'm knocking down a little 190 mile practice ride from Morrisville to Seagrove and back.
