Ride Leader: Blake Altman
Members Darin King, Scott Walker, Ken Meredith, and Mike Blaine joined me for the Doncaster & Nanjemoy ride. We were joined within about a mile of the start by David Kemp. It was a flat day; not the roads but the weather. The temperature was flat about 50 degrees at the start, finish, and in between. It was a flat gray sky with lots of flat gray fog. On the up side we had a great ride with everyone staying together and taking turns at the front. We had a quick stop along Riverside road – not at the store. David left us about five miles from the end. Within the last two miles Darin said “we might make it”. I didn't know what he was talking about until the end – he meant making it to 19 MPH. However it was not to be, the ride leader had an average of 18.8 MPH. I would say that still is plenty good enough especially in December.
