The ride started out great, nice and easy, not too fast. The lights kept us together, no breakaways. Near the top of the first hill I heard a loud chank and looked over as Vlads chain broke and started dragging on the road. I knew I had an extra link so I stayed behind..Hoss, Todd, and I coached Vlad on, not wanting to touch that greasy chain. What a mess! The only consolation is that we didn’t have to do hill 3!!

We had some surprise appearances this morning at starbucks! Struttman dropped in with some delicious cookies and sporting a nice cane and shell. Good to see Joe up and about. Aaron rode in with his daughter Adeline (sp?) for some quality time with the FMR gang. Good times!

The Friday Ride rolls again. Our friend that yells at us while holding his coffee had his dog running loose for us as we rolled down hill #3. Nick, our friday rider who is also a phoenix police officer, “talked” to him. I wish I was there to hear the conversation… The sprint was a pack of 9 that made the light on McDowell. We all got stopped at the light on Curry and once again POW right from the green light it was all out pain, as hard as you can go. Aaron championed through and stayed on Justin long enough to get around him when he faded towards the end. Great riding guys and gals!! If you have pictures, email them over.

Summer solstice, nice and cool until about 7:30. Great ride! No cops this time. Hoss missed the shot, Donkey was back at it again, and the sprint was in the bag when Jay made the light solo on Curry. Good times! Here’s a shot of Steve (Donkey) and Joe taking the first hill.
