Rain....Need I say more?Actually Minadid ok...not quite what we had planned originally, but ok. We had planned to ride to lunch on Day 1 (40miles) and Day 2 (30 miles.) The start was at 7...We didn't leave with our team the Feisty Devils as they were the fifth team to leave which I would guess put them in the first 1000 riders or so out which meant another 2000 more behind them. Since Mina and I are novice riders and unaccustomed to such large groups we left with the very last bunch that cleared the starting line @ 740. We made breakpoint1 at about 830 and were in the last handful of riders to hit that breakpoint. Now with a few miles out from BP1, I was presenting the plan to my best girlfriend Mina to catch a SAG to BP2 to get a bit ahead and she came back with an adrenaline surge or something with a we came out to ride 40 miles, we're gonna ride 40 miles attitude and I'm like... are you sure?... now keep in mind, the sky is getting greyer by the minute and I know that...
