Trip Report

Dry weather and temps, 45-50's created an opening for this ride. Starting out riders rejoiced at a ten mile an hour tailwind that pushed us into Brownsville in a little more than 1 1/2 hours(got to be a record). After resting and reducing Randy's cinnamon roll inventory, we rode back against a vigorous headwind of seventeen mph. No one complained, but all were happy to be back at the park.
