We started in the low 20's and ended in the low 40's. Holy cow, what an improvement over the previous years, what with 70 mile gusts last year, and single digits the year before. It was a great ride.
I can't imagine, LAJ. I've ridden some epic rides over the years and quite a few where people thought I was insane but I think that i only did a couple centuries in the 25-35 ranges and that's enough for me. Both that I did, ended with the last 25 miles in a medium heavy snowstorm and in both cases, I really thought I was going to make it home.
So... chapeau!
