Speedtrap Ride Tuesday July 5th recap
Twenty-two cyclists came to Elmore last night for the Speedtrap Ride. The Ghost Pepper Riders, led by Dan Willis(substituting for Scott Lang) and the Cayenne Pepper Riders, led by Bob Kayden, rode out as one group. However, when they returned, Dan reported 22.3 mph for an average, while Bob’s group was slightly less at 21.9 mph. Doug Kilpatrick and Todd Pollock combined the Habanero Riders and Jalapeno Riders into one group of twelve riders. Todd reported 19.5 mph. Ben Durant and Claude Watkins were the only Sweet Pepper Riders. They reported an average of 14.1 mph.
After the ride, several riders enjoyed cold watermelon furnished by Becky Kayden. Thank you Becky! A great treat on a 90-degree day!

Please join us next Tuesday, July 12th, for another edition of the Speedtrap Ride. The long-range forecast does not indicate a day of thunderstorms, so it should be a great day to ride. 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!
