Beautiful Morning on the Virgil Gilman

It really was a beautiful morning for the last Saturday in July, with temperatures in the 70s and a nice gentle breeze. Add to that the shaded canopy over the Virgil Gilman Trail, and it made for a awfully nice ride. You might be able to note an element of relief in my description of this day...given the brutal conditions during our last outing!   And this time we held it to 23 miles -- still a respectable distance, but much more manageable.

Another great thing about today was the three new people we had join us for the first time:  Caryn, Craig, and Patrick.  It was our sincere pleasure to welcome them to the group, and we really hope they will join us on many more rides in the near future!

After 23 miles, Craig, Patrick, Caryn, Eric, and Doug seem pleased with their ride!
Here is the trip summary, where if you look closely you can see that I started to pull out of the parking lot at the end before stopping the GPS log on my watch.  Luckily I didn't get all the way home before I noticed!
