Xtreme wheels, our Velo Veloce Cycling Club sponsor, put on their 2nd annual century ride last Sunday, August 31st. We met at the shop at 530ish in the morning. Barbaric! Bill, Colleen and Blaine had breakfast all lined up, including some jet-fuel strength coffee to get our motors started.
Besides the VV racing team, we had lots of recreational participants. We all enjoyed each other's company until the first hill about 5 miles away. Then the carnage began. The peloton quickly splintered as heart rates went up. It was a great ride, with good pacelines and quick coverage of miles. Afterwards, we rallied at the shop again and chowed down on giant sub sandwiches. Thanks to Tom Winfield for the fine photos! Let's do it again next year.
