I loved the feel of it. So laid back and everyone was there to just complete the ride. No competition really. There were 3 options- 44, 66, and 100 miler rides. 100 miles! I can't even imagine. It took us just over 3 hours to complete 44 miles (with a rest stop), so you do the math. Those people were riding ALL day. yikes. That's not for me. I like cycling, but not that much!
Before this ride the furthest I had gone was 27ish. I was a little nervous, but it turned out great. And it was more fun than I had anticipated 3 hours on the bike would be. The views were gorgeous! Rolling green hills out in the country. Sightings included dogs running next to us, a man in his overalls sans shirt on his porch, beautiful lakes, green trees and blooming flowers, etc.
