What a great weekend!!
Weather wise things bounced back from the cruel joke that was played on us on April Fool's. The sun came out and temps jumped up. It also happened to be my birthday on Saturday. And UCONN beat Kentucky to advance to the National Championship.
Saturday Annie and I went for a ride at Wompatuck. It was a great ride. We got some nice miles in and took some pictures. I'll leave the details of this ride to Annie.
When we returned from our ride I discovered that a preride for Winding Trails had been scheduled for Sunday morning. Oh decisions... UCONN was playing, Annie made ribs and green beans for my birthday dinner, and there were beers to be enjoyed. Google maps listed the course at just above 2 hours away... I know that to be on the high side, but a 10am ride time would mean an early morning for me. This is my first race and I want to be as prepared as I can be so I seriously considered attending. I jumped on the forum and
attempted to post a question as to whether or not another preride would be scheduled in the future. Apparently my posts have to be approved, and apparently no one approves anything on a Saturday evening, soooo I went to bed not knowing if there would be another opportunity. My posts never ended up showing up so I messaged the ride organizer to no avail. In the end Annie convinced me to not go and bank on there being another opportunity.
