Quick stop at the convience store in Martindale, Joy overheard the old men in the back complaining about he USADA, they must have spotted my livestrong jersey! I was impressed they knew who Lance was.
Took off for the ride, felt really good riding. Once we got to a Farm to Market road we got to deal w the gravel trucks using it to help build hwy 130. They were kinda scary. Once we got off that road, we were on the & Sisters road which is a series of 7 hills, we did 5 of them, I would like to go back and do all 7 in one stretch sometime...
Joy had been talking about how se feels like she isn't going very fast or getting faster, so I let her know when she wasn't shifting down soon enough, I hoped it helped.
At Fentress, we decided to not do all 49 & cut off the last 2 sisters and another big hill. Good decision since I once again didn't sleep the night before.
Once we were finished, we added on one more mile by biking to a geocache.
In the end Joy's average as 13.8, her highest average ever & Jerry averaged 13.5 his higest ever, too!
After the ride, we picked up a 6 pack 7 some sonic, then went to San Marcos to tube & chill! Great day!
