Pre Hurricane Ride Report

[rugbysecondrow]

My wife and I took the kids out for a rainy and windy trailer ride this morning. I towed about 75 pounds of kids, 25 pounds of trailer (plus wind resistance) around for about 20 miles while my wife cruised effortlessly on her new Bedford. I got a great workout though and I was glad we were able to get a ride in before cabin fever sets in.

Anybody else?

Hang in there.

And PLEASE be careful.

Give us an all clear when you can!!!

63 miles in just over 3 hours of pedal time this AM

Warm, muggy, and fairly calm.

The first bands of rain are hitting Boston and due here soon

Most of what's left of the storm is due late tonight and all of tomorrow

48 miles. Dry until the last 10 when a band of rain .... deluge hit. Heavier then what hit at the start of the Ramble. Lasted about 20 min then quit.

Waiting for the big stuff to hit.

took my sister-in-law and her daughter (my step-niece) on a ride. we went about 23 miles at an average of 13 mph and a nice stop at the halfway point. I witnessed a pick-up truck run a stop sign and get into an accident. little bit of rain heading back in but nothing major. supposed to get heavier later this evening in the Harrisburg, PA area.

I got 55 in this AM outside Boston, and just as I pulled into driveway to the townhouse complex, it started raining. 5 minutes later, it was raining hard.

Talk about the lull before the storm today during the ride. Very eerie out, no wind. I went by a reservoir and it was like a mirror.

Good luck everybody.

Looks like fun! Unfortunately, we don't get waves in TN like that. :crap:

I'm just west of the rain...had lots of wind from the north that gradually picked up as the day went on. (25-30mph gusts) I rode (struggled) due north for 40 miles, and then had a somewhat nice 40 miles back home with a tailwind for a good part of the time.

One more pretty sweet one...
