Group riding

The ride last night was different form the rest. That might have been the fact that there was at least 40 plus on the ride. The thing was there was rain looming the entire ride and to say the least very windy. The ride out was right into the wind keeping the pace cool but it had everyone trying to stay in a spot not getting to effected by the wind. During the ride we were nice I think for the first time in many years we waited for someone to change flat. If I remember though we did do that a time or 2 before. But any ways John Lirette was on the front pulling and he got a flat and we rolled slow and waited for him to get back up and rolling. After that it was balls to the wall all the way back to the parking lot. You had to stay on your toes as the pace was fast and never really let up. In all it was a nice ride and the pace into and with the wind made for a sketchy ride here and there but fun none the less. Only a few more beat downs to go as the light is going away fast meaning get the night lights charged and ready. Tomorrow is a ride at the Southern Kettles at 2pm so the trails should be dry and nice and packed by the early morning riders. For now it is time to finish my Weiss beers. Later..
