Yesterday 6 of us went on a 71-miler, 2200 feet of climbing and an average of 18.7 mph. The oldest person in the photo below is 79. Tomorrow an 80 plus mile loop to a National Park, with probably just two others. It's getting hot here in Tucson, the snowbirds are leaving, and even full-timers are looking at shorter rides to beat our current daily highs near 100.
