Di the usual Sunday WVC recovery ride. Usual pace, usual 20-30 riders. Stayed at back until in Sundance where I led them up the loop to Van Buren. Then to back again as we had some stragglers. In Verrado I went to the front group up Lost Dog and then pushed to lead just before meeting Verrado Way and then Karen buzzed by me on her e-bike Trek! Fun. Waited at the uptown part for some stragglers while the big part of group went ahead. I never did catch them, so that was not part of my plan. So I tried to catch them. Then Derrick caught me and we both tried to catch them on the downhill. Then I went ahead on Camelback trying to catch as many as I could and Cheryl followed me! Good for her. I kept upping the pace a bit and wondered when she might fall off but she hung on the whole time. Then as we neared Indian School, Derrick zipped by me and I did not have the heart or legs to follow him. Oh well. Cheryl said she enjoyed that sprint! Glad she liked it. Then the big group all left Ebb n Flow while I was in bathroom so I assumed Josh would have headed to WTP to head home so I went that way. Never saw him. Caught a rabbit on Northern and then she continued straight onto Cortessa Pkwy and I went W to to WtP. Most of the saguaros are done blooming but a couple had flowers. I even thought some of the pods were starting to open as some cactus wrens were picking at them. Nice ride through the park. Started to get hot, so called it a day and just headed home. It would have been nice to go 100 miles, but I had had enough.
