Burnsville Ride...the Sequel
2 weeks ago, when we did this ride Ray wasn't able to finish the ride, one of his clips on his cycling shoe broke..so for 2 weeks Ray couldn't wait to do this route..I did tell him it was a little hilly.. but its like going to a resturaunt and asking how hot are the wings.. sometimes you just have to find out for yourself..Its just Ray & I..we start @6:50am..we wanted a early start..before it gets hot and no shade..we are moving at a pretty good clip..having a good time..I forget what mile marker, around 27mi. But up ahead is a big Bull it looks like its in the middle of the road..we thought we were seeing things..but sure of enough, there it was in the middle of the road..it was bigger than both of us..it didn't bother us. We get to Burnsville 35.2 miles into the ride..we stopped for 15 minutes, sat down on a picnic table that was just built..as we get on our bikes..we said next stop New Towne Village..but the hills were endless, there seem to be more this time, and they grew..Ray was running out gas..no sooner did we go down one we were going up one.. these hills just took energy and motivation out of us..67.4 miles later,we finish the route and Ray said "thats the last time I"m doing that route" this route bother Ray more than me...Any time I can get on my bike its a good day..we wouildn't want them all the same..300mi./24hrs..Yes..Yes..
