I'm off to Indy

I'll be joining other BF members for a ride around the Indianapolis Speedway this weekend. First I'll be doing the usual Friday morning club ride and then heading west this afternoon. I haven't decided if I'll ride the roads or stay on the track and ride. The track would make a perfect place for a century but they limit the time allowed for a century. I doubt very much if I'll have enough time to complete 100 miles but maybe I can make a metric century. A lot depends on how well the leg and back feel tomorrow.

I was looking forward to meeting and riding with Solveg but we all know she's not been feeling too good Get well soon!

I promise to take lots of pictures and post a ride report upon my return.

I always thought it would be cool to ride the speedway and try for a PB century, but I'm just not willing to drive for 5 hours, then pay that much for the ride and an overnight. Hope you have lots of fun!

Beverly, sounds like a great time. Enjoy yourself.
Feel free to post lots of pictures when you get back.
Cranky likes to look at pictures.

I must have missed the post about Solveg. Sorry Solveg, hope you're
doing alright.

Have fun, Beverly, and say "Hi" to Tom from the left coast.
p.s. Solveg, feel better.
