Several friends rode the HnHH this weekend and reported conditions were a bit rougher than recent years. A bit hotter and windier. A couple bailed out early and finished with 50, 60 or 75 miles. A few doing their first centuries did the full ride in good time, including one young woman who's been riding less than a year and averaged 17+ mph. But that didn't surprise me, she's a natural on the bike. A couple others who usually ride the full century cut it short this year, but they didn't have as much training mileage this year getting ready.
