You Must Be Nuts Ride

Since Chris hasn't figured out how to post on the blog,  here's the report she sent to the email list --


YOU MUST BE NUTS RIDE 

That's what we heard from family and friends, but it did not deter Ross, Rich, Dave and Chris ( me) from  saddling up and pushing off from Panera's on Friday morning at 8 am lead by the  intrepid, NILES. We maintained a 15-16 mph pace with a couple break a ways and never missed a chance to gulp down  water at every stop sign. Cruising through shady Medford Lakes, we laughed and commented on how well we were doing. We're no wimps. Being a devoted follower,  as opposed to a leader, I can't account for the route details ( see Niles). However, by the time we hit the rest stop at the Wawa at Oakshade, god bless AC !!!! Do they rent rooms ?
 
We kept checking with each other as the temperature climbed to 101. We all agreed that we felt the temperature  the most the last 2 miles or so  riding back through Evesham.  I could feel my face burning with heat as I raised my head to check how much road remained.   We ended up with 31.8 miles, fine fellowship and something to talk about. Thanks, guys.
