Route . Fabulous route in the Merkle , Croom & Aquasco areas .
Weather . Damp & Chilly with patches of warmth when the sun occasionally popped out .
AMS . 15.9 .
Mechanical . We dropped 2 chains going up Windbrook Dr or Floral Park Rd at the end of the ride .
Ride Report . A Great group of riders who were smooth & steady all day no matter what detour or life threw at us . Our group of 5 including Andrea , Vernon , Ken , Samson & I caught up with the AA group at the Ambulance crash & followed them on the almost 5 mile detour to get back on Que . Thanks to Ken for his general knowledge of this area for his help . We missed the turn for Molly Berry somehow later in the ride after picking up the ever so speedy Leo into the group . We did a another 4 mile detour it seemed looking for Martin rd but we found North Keys instead thanks to Samson for his GPS technology helping get us back on track . Safety was on all of our minds with the wet roads & I praise these riders for looking out for one another , pointing out obstacles & riding with a skill level that is comforting to others in the group . All in all a chilly but very memorable May Metric .
