Ride Description: VCC – Tuesday Night Road Ride
Riding Partners: Ahh hell I don’t know. Skip, Aaron, Kelly, Jessica, and about 40 of my closest friends.
Notes on the day: Got home from Grand Traverse with enough time to get my clothes on and join the VCC ride. On my way down to the shop I realized this would be my last ride before Dalmac. With just around 750 miles in this year, I am woeful behind last years miles but my riding has been more of a mental support mechanism this year than a physical. The ride itself was very slow going out Eats into the Wind but we kicked it up pretty good when we made the turn and finally started heading West. We must of kicked it up a little too much as Aaron came to the front and admonished the group for not sticking to the intended ‘pace’.
All in all I feel fine for Dalmac and ready to beat up on my body for 4 days in a row. Eat and drink everything in sight and generally forget about the real life that is the daily grind here in Holland. Vacation here I come.
