N'Emonda. Sunny, warm, minimal winds. Earlier start around 8 am from the hotel, a new variation on an old favorite and the Queen's stage of the week. Rode with the Daves - Me, Struck, Frable and Eaton, Casey Cordon, Wally and Steve Moran, we all stuck together the whole ride. Fantastic day of climbing and descending, some gorgeous roads and scenery. Last hour got pretty hot after lunch at the Argyle Cafe (Formerly Irma's Cafe). One of the prettiest rides I've ever done, they just seem to get better every day. Me, Dave Eaton and Dave Struck rode very hard on the hills, particularly the roller sections, but everyone had a really strong day. TSS: 250, IF: 74, Avg: 187W, Max: 891W, Norm: 210W, +4,200 ft climbing.
