Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/15196933 45 mi, 1667' of elevation gain (notably Franklin Gibson south of Trott's Branch)
Weather: sunny, breezy to windy (there's just no way that was a 7 mph wind, as weather.com claimed) with temps in the 50s at the start rising to an indicated 65 by the ride's end. The sun was warm, the air was cool.
Mishaps & mechanicals: Harry hit a pothole and got a flat 3 miles from the start. When he finally got it fixed he decided that having used his only spare tube, turning around and returning to the start was the prudent move.
AMS: 12.6
