Windy. Yes, it was very windy today, but 5 of us braved the winds to do a little climbing. I had an average temperature of 39, but this did not seem to have any effect on the frisky riders out today. Joining me were Richard Harrington, Ray Salvagnini, Scott Walker and Tyler "The Hammerer" Levesque. We had quite an awesome tailwind on the way out, and I knew what to expect on the way home. We had a nice rest at the St. Ignatius Church on Chapel Point. A nice downhill on the Beast of Bel Alton was supplemented with the last of tailwinds we were to see today. After climbing Rose Hill and Bumpy Oak like wild men, we all got back safely to the Safeway parking lot with no issues whatsoever.
Ride leader had AMS of 14.2, elevation gain of 2247, and 42.6 miles. Oh, did I mention the wind?
