Speedtrap Ride Tuesday July 28th recap
Twenty-four hardy cyclists came to Elmore Tuesday evening for the latest chapter of the Speedtrap Ride. Most said it was a good ride, but windy.
Doug Metzger reported a 22.0 mph for the Ghost Pepper Riders.
Mike Grillis and Dave Stover formed the de facto Cayenne Pepper Riders, and had a 20.8 mph average.
Ken South led his Habanero Riders to a 20.4 mph average
Andy Gundlach led eight Jalapeno Riders from start to finish with an 18.2 mph average.
Claude Watkins and Ron Berry rode as Sweet Pepper Riders with a 15 mph average.
Pictured are David St. Louis with his son Oliver, a first-time Speedtrap Rider. Welcome Oliver! Also pictured is Larry Billingsly. While technically Larry is not a first-time rider, he has returned after a long absence. Welcome back! Welcome back also to Ron Berry, after a long absence!!
Jalapeno Riders are shown on the road. Thank you Andy Gundlach for those photos.
It was also a night to celebrate Christmas in July/ Thank you Kathy Metzger for the photo of those enjoying the holiday spirit!
Next Tuesday, August 4th, the sunflowers in bloom will be expecting you! Cloudy skies with a 30% chance of a few showers are predicted, with a high temperature of 84 degrees and a southeast wind of 6 mph. Sign-in begins at 6:00 in front of the bike shop. I hope to see you then!
