https://pchrandos.com/five-rivers-300k/ Doug Bertrand surprised me as a last minute sign-up, and we agreed to start at 6:30AM, but I managed to drag it out to 6:40. :-/ It was a good day for riding, and, as always, was grand to be riding with Doug. We picked up David Danovsky on the way down to Long Beach and he joined us until we sent him on when Doug suffered the first of 2 flats (one on each wheel), as he cavorted about off the edge of the road - too much energy moping along with us slow riders, no doubt. Briefly spoke with Hector a couple of times, and also the lady RBA for Chicago, who had an impressive array of gadgets along, including a Gen 3 Spot device. Also saw Russell Cammell, who was it good spirits as usual. 15.5 min on front flat; mi 170 12.5 min on rear; mile 181.6
