Half Century at 18.4!
Went out today with the local club (CSPExpress) and kept up with the A group for most of the ride. Got dropped on one 5 mile stretch when they were pulling at 26-27. This ole 1948 2 Cylinder engine just doesn't have the carburetor to keep up with those newer 30 yr old engines. But at the end of the day I finished with the B group with 50.2 mi at 18.4 mph. 
And that included a rest break at the park and a flat tire!
