BobL, chicken farmer Birdman and Jay ( Doc's son-in-law) met at NC Wesleyan with the the threat of rain. Nick must have stayed in retirement in spite,of a post saying he would come if no rain. Sam the man and fast Eddie show to represent RM. Heading out we are at back Jay riding Doc's fixed gear takes off like a rocket, we eventually pass him adjusting his seat. I slow a little, but Bob L says he, will catch us and he did. Jay bridges us up to,front group with speeds of 25 plus. We catch the lead,group and I think we will sit in for a while, but the first little rise off we go a take over the front. I last for 45 min, Steve hangs with the front group, Bob L falls off about the same time as me. Catch up with Steve at sag stop, he has been left by front group while trying to fill his bottle. He and I ride together rolling at a much more sane 21/22 pace. Last 12 miles are into a strong head wind and pace drops down to 18/19. All is going well until about 9 miles, from the finish, I flat, Steve says Bob will roll by shortly and sure enough just as I get the repair done Bob and a group of 4 roll by. Steve and I bridge up to to them and ride in pushing the pace back up to 21. At the last stop light and a left turn I pull a Nick and sprint through and roll in slightly ahead of the group. 62 miles 19.2 avg. Jay is first in and wins an outback gift certificate in the door prize drawing. No rain, cloudy but humid. Great day to be on the bike. Sunday a no recovery ride 2:00 DD. Birdman. Sent from my iPad
