Hilly Hundy= 102 Miles, 6475 Feet Of Climbing, In Just 8:09:32

What can I say other then it was a beautiful day for a ride:) I reciceved me first sunburn racing stripe on the Hilly Hundy. We (Teri,Dennis,Taylor,and I) left around 9:05am for the beginning of a good day. Teri and Taylor we're out for the 40 mile loop while Dennis and I would tackle the hundy on our own. Before we even left town the gravel on RRP was a total mess.....Teri was ready too turn around and say fuck it, but I managed to talk her into staying, saying that would be the worse part...of her ride:) Once we made it too Booneville Rd we met yet another mate whom wanted to suffer...Brian Duffy of the Register joined the bally hoo of gravel poo-poo:) On too Booneville, once here we stopped so Teri could get back on with us, I was joking around saying Teri is most likely wishing she would have ridden gears instead of her single....when she rolled up....those where her exact words....we all laughed:) Once we got to Warren Rd we parted ways with the 40 oz'ers, Dennis,Duffy and I would roll south on this roller coaster of a road. At mile 37 Duffy decided to bail feeling he was holding Dennis and I up, he was hanging on the flats but the hills where showing his age:) that is a joke by the way:) Duffy had too have ended up with at least 60 miles by the time he got his butt back home. It was nice meeting you my brutha, good luck at Leadville:) We got off track a few times, I guess this most likely happens when you don't recon the ride before hand. Route slip doesn't tell the differece between gravel and level B's either:) Lots of horses out in southern Iowa...on one of the climbs, Dennis and I get to the top and there is this older lady hanging out with other folks with their horses...she yells at us...did you just climb that hill.....we reply....yup.....are you breathing hard....yup....thats funny I ride it all the time on my horse and it don't bother me at all.....oh the things I could have responded with but choose to bite me tonge:) I won't bore you with more talk of the day other than it was a great ride:) We ended up stopping in Norwalk with a 102 miles, calling Teri to come and pick us up cause I didn't bring any lights (yes I'm a dumbass).
