100+

This past Saturday Dallas Dave, Jesse "I look like the Hulk" Harmon, and I headed out for a ride just over 100 miles. It started off great until we hit the Lake Murray Dam. Dave got a flat tire so we had to pull on over. The bike you see below is the trusty frame that will be taking me across the country. The panniers that were graciously donated by Greg at Inertia served a great purpose. We were able to carry MANY extra bottles for our long haul as well as adding a good 40 pounds to my bike. On the bright side, the bag only got lighter as we drank more Hammer Heed and Perpetuem. We did this same ride on July 4th and out ride time dropped by almost 45 minutes, so we can tell we are definitely getting stronger.
On a separate note...Dave had the pleasure of marrying off his daughter this past Sunday, and Jesse got to officiate his first wedding! So congrats to the new couple and may they be blessed with a fun honeymoon and a happy marriage.
