Century #6 for 2010

Great pace, great weather, great people. That about sums up today's century. All in all, we had a total of 16 people in our group. We all left at different times, but we able to meet up in Dale, Ind. We even tried taking a group shot, but the lady from the area never saw an iPhone before and the end result was humorous...at best.

This century took us out to Santa Claus, Ind., the location of a pretty popular amusement park is located called Holiday World. Traffic was pretty hectic leading up to it and it didn't help that we had to go through a pretty hilly section of road. The cars were not overly happy. Oh, well.

The best part of the ride was having yet another "rookie" out for their first century. I've had the luck of having a newbie on my last three century ride. Fellow Bob's Gym Boot Camp classmate Cindy Taylor took on the challenge and KICKED ASS! Even more amazing is that she didn't do it with any clip pedal. Two words: Old...School.

At the end of the ride, both Cindy and I agreed to go to Boot Camp on Monday to rub our century in hr instructor's face and challenge her to come out for a century (considering all the grief she gives us). After we parted ways, I made a stop at the local Cold Stone Creamery for a smoothie and headed home.

Four more to go...
