RIDE WITH MATT: Day 5

BIGGEST DAY OF RIDING!

Thanks Downtube Bicycle Works for quick bike fix on Saturday!

We’ve hit the Berkshires.  Hills. Heat. Humidity.  Not to mention 81.6 miles and 7000ft of climbing.  Matt and Jeremy are amazing, it’s official, especially for cyclist newbies.  Adam and Bob, meh.  I mean they’re awesome.  Wait until you see some of the images from Ali and Amy (who joined us on this day for some great still photography!) and video of Adam and the two young men, one in front while Adam rides side-by-side next to the other one a little way back, securely giving him the little extra push up the hill to get the team back together again to work as one.  Or the amazing sight of each of the 4 exhausted riders zooming down huge hills, sometimes at 40+ mph, giving their poor bodies a tiny break and whooshing through the wind to cool off.  Can’t wait until tomorrow’s final day into Tyngsboro!
