Excellent ride, and what an awesome group of students. I didn't make Park this time, but plan to on the next one.
You may want to re-state your "on the flats" speed, although my computer showed 15.7 average over 69 miles (which is a little high for 16-18 in the flats and slower on the hills). Great ride, great day, great company and a very very good hill work out. Again, those students can really hammer on the hills. Got dropped, but I'm working on it.
William, glad you could make it ...yea it's veryr satisfying working with the High School club and watching them develop as cyclists throughout the years. I definitely will restate the pace :-) ..just updated my Friday ride in fact, check it out and see if that more accuratenly reflects the pace. The last thing I want to do is mis-state the pace and end up blowing someone up!!
Thanks Javier for letting me tag along for most of the ride today. I would have stayed longer but I only had a temporary hall pass. ;-) It was a good group today and a fun ride. Those kids are really fast!
At this rate I'll be doing 100+ mi/week ! :)
