Memorial Day Ride to Rulo, NE

Every Memorial Day I ride a 100 miles to Rulo, NE with my buddies from St. Joe. This year was no different, and with 20 other St. Josephites and 2 support vehicles along, we had a nice crowd. The weather was perfect and I felt absolutely great the entire ride. Took it easy for the first 35 miles or so and then motor paced one of the support vehicles on the flats into Rulo at 35 to 42 mph! It was a freaking blast and an awesome workout! You can see where I was motor pacing from the Garmin data below (miles 35-50). Also got up to 51 and 53 mph going down into the valleys (fun). Nice hills going out and some easy flats coming back. Looking forward to the DK 200 this Saturday, and feeling good about it!
