Starting at West Dam at 7am and heading west, plan is to do all of Bartram + Keg. Will stash water at Keg/Bartram intersection.
Anyone interested? Ride as much or as little as you want.

Excellent! How far you planning on going?
I'll drop the water around 6:45ish. I'm only dropping water, so bring any food you want with you. I'll drop enough water for both of us though.

Thanks for joining me fellas, GREAT ride today despite the humidity. Me, michael84, wala, and walter all rolled out of West Dam together. Breynolds was waiting for us at Petersburg, then we ran into BrianW on the boardwalk on new bartram. Wala turned around at the pavillion, then michael tweaked his ankle near washington rd so him, breynolds, and walter headed back. BrianW and I rode a lap around keg, then I rode bartram on my own back to the car. I ended up skipping Lake Springs on the return trip when that thunderstorm seemingly popped up out of nowhere. After 45 miles of pedaling I went full out for about two miles in an attempt to outrun the storm...I failed. Rode the last mile and a half in a downpour. Still a great ride tho! How's the ankle michael? Here's a pic:

+1, great ride this morning. 30 miles from WD to the pavillion and back including the lake springs loop on the way out. I was wondering if you made it out before the storm hit.

It was tight for the first couple of miles back. It started to loosen up and it felt a lot better by the time I got back to the car... But as of now it is swollen and stiff.

The heat and muggy conditions sucked the energy out of my legs about half way thru keg. Still a good ride.

That was a fun ride! Hope I didn't hold you guys up too much. Considering getting no rides in the last 3 weeks I managed to grunt out 22.5 miles in that ridiculous mugginess.
