round the mountain on New Year's day!

Today we joined the local bike groups for a New Years ride on round mountain.  There was a total of 150 people!  We woke up late and threw all our crap in the car and took off for our ride... I was thinking a nice casual ride just a couple of miles... well about 2 and 1/2 hours later we've already done 34 miles.. damn... i wasn't ready for this :)  i had the luxury of riding behind the limo (tandem bike) the last half of the ride, which i don't think i've could have done the ride without them with our steady fast cadence of 22!  anyways i survived and i'm ready for our mtb group ride tomorrow night... hopefully i don't get lost in the dark again :)~
