"Citius, Altius, Fortius". I opted for at least the "higher" part of that. While the Olympians road circles around Box Hill, I took Carnahan Road out into the Flint Hills. Average speed in the hills was about average, but I felt better about them; they're challenging rather than fearsome now. Carnahan Road has just been gravel overlaid. That's not an ideal bicycling surface, and I was a bit nervous about the 40 mph downhills. I was also an idiot and didn't notice that my GPS receiver was off on my Forerunner, so I have wheel data but no map data for this ride. Temperature was 73F-89F, with a mostly cooling 8 mph SE breeze. It did get to be a bit of a gusty headwind on the trip home, peaking at about 17 mph. The prairie is very pretty despite the heat and drought, and I took a lot of pictures. Wore the red Giordana jersey and the PI shorts.
