Saturday, Aug 8 Ride

Rode the "Touch the Arch" ride today. It was a cooker out there today. After about 11:00 AM, the pavement was hot and you could feel the heat coming off the surface of the street. Sort of felt like you were in an oven and getting cooked from all sides.

Four riders total on the route (Victor, Steve, Mark, Dan). We started with two and picked up two along the route.

Route specifics downloaded from my Garmin (thanks Mark for the IT tutorial).

Ended up riding about 75 from start to finish (forgot to turn Garmin on a time or two hence the mileage on mapomyride showing 69.24.

Touch the Arch Ride (69.24 mi.)

Hope to see more out there given the MS Ride is coming up soon!
