This is a standard Hubsters ride to a bakery named Bliss, which is now closed. But, we stopped at another bakery in Groton called Salt and Pepper and the line was a little longish. I was running late so met them on route at the corner of Piper and School street, with another guy named Dave. We stopped at 8:46 to honor 9/11 and that was very meaningful. It was a clear crisp September morning like 9/11 actually. Rode with two grad students from Brandeis, that was pretty cool to talk to them. The pace was kind of easy, partly because we stayed together as a group and didn't break into two groups. So, near the end I wanted to make sure we broke 15 mph, so I peeled off at Martin street and did a loop on Liberty, Tuttle and South Acton Road to get the pace up and break 40 miles. And, met my soulmate on Tuttle Road doing the same thing after her ride!
