I started the day with sunshine but was lazy and binge watched The Terminal List on Amazon. Then my wife and I had lunch and another hour of doing nothing passed…..actually I was waiting to hear from my oncologist office to get my schedule….but they are probably REALLY busy due to being closed yesterday. It’s sad how many sick people are out there. I’m 3 weeks out of chemo and yet my face still has a rash…sorry @Shaggz but no selfie today. Anyway back at the ranch the wife says you better go ride before it rains to which I replied “oh shit it’s supposed to rain ?” But it didn’t smell like rain, that’s for you @mike_243 . So I just pulled a NASCAR day and did laps around the hood in the drizzle on the fatbike into the wind. Can’t tell you how bad this ride sucked. Lol

Day 5: Killington and a Spot of Rain

My title betrays me again. And thus the mystery is lost. We are up to 11 now, 10 of us made it today and Jim went his own way, as seen above. Regardless of where we went, we all got rained on. We got in 2 hours dry, then things started to open up and we dropped 1-by-1. D and I were in the last 4, then we called it quits and Utah & Zac rounded out the day. Trails were amazing, like always. Unfortunately, as I was hitting my stride, the rain started to come down and we started mixing in pauses between runs. Eventually we gave up and by 3:00 we were heading back to town.

First interesting note was on a lift with a stranger, who made the comment that we had a big crew. Then he said, "Hey which of you guys posts the funny stuff?" in reference to the races. Now mind you, the guy said he was from Syracuse so we were a bit surprised he knew who we were. He then said he once signed up for a race but it got cancelled due to the snow. So then I said, "You mean Norm?" He replied, "Yeah!" Funny world.

Then someone walked up to me later and said, "Hey we did the Fun Monday ride together a few weeks ago." That was JPark. Small world, in addition to it being funny.

Tomorrow we move on to the Kingdom.

4 of 20+ rides.

I took and extra day off to extend the weekend and decided to sleep in and ride later in the morning with some of my WFH buds. ( one of them his last name is Miller so that’s the ride title joke reference. )

We were three and just rolled around one of our usual road loops and added a few miles. It was hot and sunny the first 10 minutes then breezy and cloudy the rest of the ride. I had time to ride more miles but after a lot of miles the last 7 days I was beat and went home. Just an hour later it started to rain so glad I did not get caught out.

We were talking and BSing the whole time I didn’t take any ride pics except this Old Cutlass convertible that drove by while we were at a stop sign. Thanks to burst picture mode I got one good one.
