Tonight there were 4 of us. Even by Thursday standards it was a small group. On Tuesday we had two first timers join us, one of them came back for more torture. Okay, she was smiling most of the time.
It was a hot night, with the temperature just a bit above 90 degrees when we started.
One of our group had other plans later tonight so started a bit early, and left a bit early. Our smiling rookie managed to score 5 ascents tonight!
After playing on the hill for 90 minutes our official ride was over and usually some of us retire to a local watering hole for refreshments/snacks. Tonight one left early, one had to get home, and the third thought it best to head home since Tuesday we all got a bit late before getting home.
That just left me there......... what's a guy to do? Well, ride the %#^@%# bike of course! I decided that I was already there, the hill was still there, and it would be daylight another 90 minutes or so, I might as well ride bonus miles. ;-)
I only got five ascents tonight during the allotted 90 minutes, just too busy chatting, taking photos, etc.
I did better the second 90 minutes, getting another 6 climbs, and totaling just over 5000 feet of climbing.
A bit warm, but still a good night for riding.
