Great story! I actually rode in this ride and for me, it went terrible lol. I'm glad you both enjoyed it. I instantly remembered seeing that bike in the parking lot while setting up. Those winds was nothing to mess around with. I ride with the 22+ mph group and those cross winds made it pretty scary at times. The "condo canyons" would blow riders into the next lane with ease. Luckily no one crashed (that I know of). Great ride for a great cause.
