Thursday was humid and hot with very little perceptible wind. I was jazzed to ride, but I was not looking forward to doing so in this weather. Everyone else was feeling the dread of the weather, both JT and Ckucke waffling on the edge of indecision all day. We met at the appointed time and found the area again infested. Jarrel came down the hill after doing a lap on his freeride hardtail. He was set to ride St. Louis, but his riding partner bailed, so he went up Tantalus. Ckucke managed to talk him into joining us for a second climb! I was not on the game for some reason or another, so I was off the back from the start. Somewhere up ahead, Root latched onto some roadies and drafted them to the top. My lower back was burning and my legs really didn’t feel like they were giving their all. Oh well. The descent went faster.
D = 15.32 km (9.52-miles), Vavr = 17.6 km/h (10.9-mph), Vmax = 62.9 km/h (39.1-mph), T = 52-minutes (climb = 42-minutes, descent = 10-minutes)
