Wonderful time at the Easter ride this morning.
Lot of DF, MTB, tandem and recumbents out on the recreational ride at Governors Park. Some of the local carbon gel coat boys and me were going 32 miles per hour and as fast as traffic at times. It was like being on a motor scooter.
The local carbon gel coat boys were not trying to show off or anything. It was one of those cruise down the road while smiling, waving and ringing our incredibells at the folks we passed along the way.
I'm glad no one in any of the matching jersey teams tried to chase my carbon gel coat buddies at those 32 mph speeds. If a chase had happened I would have to post some obnoxious BS story about how the carbon gel coat boys made someone in a team jersey puke or some smoking yarn. Instead it was just a nice ride in the country at some fun speeds with the carbon gel coat locals and all the cyclist we talked to at the SAGs including those teams with fancy matching colorful jerseys.
This carbon gel coat thingamajigamadoodle sure beats the heck out of riding that heavy 150 lb homebuilt recumbent I used to walk up the hills with while eating PBJs.
