Finally some color. Seems like overnight things turn green, white, pink & purple. It’s like watching an artist bring a blank canvas to life. This morning the bunch tackled the Airport Loop. About 58 miles with 2,300 gain. There are some great sections of road on this route. The weather was perfect and the rain held off. There is a ton of pollen flying around right now. My tires turned yellow by the end of the ride. I like this route because it’s not boring. There is a lot of twisty turny stuff and very little traffic.

A look back.

42nd is always spirited. Some fun rollers.

The bunch was shredded pretty good.

A 4kids sighting.

The rollers just after XNA can hurt a bit. 

Galey Hollow Rd. is one of my favorite stretches. 

Lot’s of this stuff. It’s basically a gradual downhill heading south. 

Then it’s on to Old Hwy. 68.

Just past the radio tower.

It’s fun to watch folks get faster each week. These guys were super strong this morning.  

This shot reminds me that I need to mow my yard.

Good times this morning. I definitely feel like the bike was ridden.

And then there’s this whippersnapper.
