A few things to remember for Sunday.
Early season century.
Skies are supposed to be all sun.
We're all pasty to begin with.
Therefore.... Don't forget the SUNBLOCK!

incorrect!
"Clouds and possible or brief showers a.m. Turning partly cloudy, milder inland. Steady ESE winds limit shoreline highs to low 60s. "
If that's the case, the first part of the ride will be rough, but the second half will rock.

I remember reading that Psimet was gonna break wind so be my guest. I'm not even remotely familiar with the area at all, is there going to be a designated spot where we can meet? I don't think I'd recognize anyone from the spring ride unless you all are wearing the same jerseys again. On another note.... I went a nice, relaxing 30 mile ride today to warm up the legs and get the flats out of the way :rolleyes: Both tires flatted a few miles apart. Don't forget spare tubes and patches. See you all tomorrow.
