It was a great day for my inaugural ride leader ride. Participation was great. I had seventeen riders to sign-up for the ride: Jan Tucker, Darin King, Chuck Coe, Mike Miller, Ron Leak, Robert Golding, Chantal, Bob, Sharon Miller, Cathy Wilson, John k, Claire and George Chiamulera, Michelle Williams, Dana Middleton, John Clark and Michael Blaine. My goal was to lead a true “A” pace ride. For the most part, I accomplished my goal. The group averages were 18.5 to 19.1 AMS at the split and 17.4 to 18.9 AMS at the finish. There were no major issues – one flat at the start and one flat on Pomfret Road. All in all – it was a great inaugural ride. Thanks to all that decided to join me on the ride.
