The Plan: 53 mile: /ridewithgps.com/routes/15012401 20 mile: /ridewithgps.com/routes/15012419 Rode with Paula S for all. For the 53 we rode with a group doing the 43 Jack Donohue took a massive 20 mile pull and Walter Frank got us to the split. Also Julie Stephenson and Bruce Eisenhut, and an unknown lady in white jacket - great line, pace, soft elbows - pleasure to draft. At Plum Island, Melinda caught up with us and got separation on way back to Abraham's Bagels. I had a piece of pizza (no brownies) Paula and I soloed back to the start with a fellow for 10ish miles. Then we went back out for the 20 mile - Her phone, my memory from looking at the route last night and where it intersected the long routes. Pretty even pacing all along. There really was very little, if any, pace drop throughout the day. Misty to start, dry for lap 2. I had a late computer turn on for lap one. Adjusted distance and time. (2:00 and 0.4 mile)
