Re-genesis of Planet Ultra's CTC double century, run in the reverse direction this year. Rode with Pete, who graciously stuck with me on a long day in the saddle with some significant headwinds. The 138 was particularly unpleasant; there is not an adequate shoulder east of the Ridge Route Rd, leaving cyclists at the mercy of oversized vehicles when there is oncoming traffic. (Ride with a mirror!) It reached the low 90's at times, and the roving SAG I was told would be positioned BEFORE Heartbreak was 10 miles further on, just before the start of a long, hot climb where there was water available nearby anyway. Waah! Anyway, it is a scenic route and, next time, I would not rely on the "leapfrog" support. I should have stopped for more calories and hydration in Lake of the Woods (at the turn onto Lockwood Valley Rd). I suppose it would also hep to be in better shape! LOL. -------------- Ride producer's web page: https://planetultra.com/tour-of-two-forests/
