From Joe Peltier, 5fer Thursday Ride Captain September 23, 2021

Sept. 16 Recap

Hot 1 - 24.1

Hot 2 - No reported Note:  Ride Leader Tim E. had a mechanical issue and rode with Extra Spicy

Extra Spicy - A blistering 22.00

Spicy Plus - 18.7

Spicy - 17.2

GLR - 14.5

It was a great night for riding.  64 riders made it to the start.  All ride leaders reported good and safe rides.  Many smiles were seen post ride.  It was a good time.

For tonight's ride:

Lights:  Make sure to have them

Clothing:  Be prepared for the cooler and potentially wet conditions

Ride start time: 6pm

Weather:  

• It does not look promising now.  I'll make a call this afternoon as I study the radar and try to out-guess the professional meteorologists.
• I will put the safety of the group ahead of everything else
• We love/live to ride.  It's not worth it if we can't ensure the safety of all the riders

Special mentions:

• Hot one volunteer ride leaders Phil Carrol, Monica (don't know your last name) and Jim Mazy.  Thank you all for stepping up
• Doug K. for thinking outside the box with his rather large group
• Jodi, Tim P. and John G. for their steady leads and visible coaching
• All the riders who show up week in and week out for making this a pretty awesome and unique experience.

We have only 2 official rides remaining for this season.  Let us make them great rides.

 Regards,

Joe "El Capitan" Peltier
