Speedtrap Ride Tuesday June 28^th recap

          The Speedtrap Ride brought thirty-one riders to Elmore Tuesday night for its latest chapter. Scott Lang led the Ghost Pepper Riders and reported 23.3 mph for a riding average. Bob Kayden led a combined Cayenne Pepper/Habanero Group to an average of 21.3 mph.       John Del Toro --filling in for Todd Pokkock—Thank you John—led the Jalapeno Riders with a riding average of 18 mph. There was one mechanical issue in his group. The Sweet Pepper Riders were four in number but split halfway into the ride. Claude Watkins reported 15.1 mph.

          Pictured are Doug and Kathy Metzger. Doug is wearing the Kitten Jersey, celebrating his 24^th birthday. Happy Birthday Doug!

          Also pictured are Cayenne/Habanero Riders on the road and Sweet Pepper Riders on the road.

          On a personal note: My arm and shoulder are much better—just stiff with very limited range of motion. Hope to be riding in the not-to-distant future..

          Several riders gathered after the ride to enjoy Portage Inn Pizza.

Please join us next Tuesday for the July 5^th edition of the Speedtrap Ride. The long-range forecast is for a high of 86 degrees, SW winds at 10 mph, and a 50% chance of scattered thunderstorms. That means 50% chance of no thunderstorms! Sign-in begins at 6:00 in front of the bike shop, and we roll out at 6:30 pm. I hope to see you then!
