Speedtrap Ride Tuesday July 27th recap
Thirty-nine cyclists, a record crowd for 2021, came to Elmore Tuesday night for the Speedtrap Ride.
Scott Lang led the Ghost Pepper Riders and reported a riding average of 23.1 mph.
Bob Kayden led the Cayenne Pepper Riders at 22.1 mph
Doug Kilpatrick and his Habanero Riders averaged 20.9 mph
Dan Waggoner led six Jalapeno Riders and reported 18.1 mph
I rode out with four other Sweet Pepper Riders . Claude Watkins from that group reported 16.4 mph.
Pictured is Bob Kayden, who has been leader of the Cayenne Pepper Riders since that group’s inception a few years ago. His group’s riding average
creeps up a little every week!
Also pictured is Marnie Arndt, founder of the Speedtrap Ride!
Correction: Last week I pictured new Speedtrap Rider Sam Weigman, but mistakenly identified him as someone else. Welcome Sam!
After the ride, several gathered in front of the bike shop for music, drink, good conversation, and celebration of Kathy Metzger’s great finish in the half-ironman!
Way to go Kathy!
Please join us next Tuesday, August 3rd, for the next chapter of the Speedtrap Ride. Sign-in begins at 6:00 in front of the bike shop. I hope to see you then!
