Looks like a lot of good miles for lots of folks this weekend! Nice reports all.

My pics aren't as spectacular but they mean a lot to us. 62.6 miles, our first metric century on the tandem. After yesterday's hall pass to ride the Masi I had to oblige my better half in one of her new goals!

At the finish:



One of our many picnic stops:



Talked to some nice folks about old bikes in general. Met a guy at the end of the ride on a '79 Motobecane Grand Tour. At Fern's in Carlisle, a favorite cyclists' lunch stop, there were four Lemonds in the racks, and another guy rode up on a steel Serotta.

Also lots of tandems. At one point we were passed simultaneously by tandems going both directions. (I guess we were the slowest of the bunch!)
