Four for Fun

Tuesday 6/9/2009 we had four riders. I saw four pennies on the roadway over the course of the ride. We were riding at a fast enough pace that I just left the coins where they were. I don't leave coins very often, and it was difficult for me to pass them. We pedaled a recorded 17.8 miles at an average speed of 14.5 mph. The group took a mostly flat route going out, as we traveled a little north, on the Cardinal Greenway. Then we were west, on Industries Road, to Round Barn Road. We were trying to take advantage of the wind that would push us back. On the return route, after crossing on Main Street to the east side of the Whitewater River Gorge, the decision was made to go south on the Whitewater Gorge Trail. Up Test Road, over to L street, and back to our respective neighborhoods completed the evening ride. This was a little faster ride than we normally do, but the four riders set a pace that was comfortable for the group.
