10 cyclists. First time the women outnumbered the guys, 6-4, on a ride that I have been on. 41.5 miles. 4300 ft climbing. Great weather - sunny in the upper 70's with low humidity. We saw a lot of horses showing off, dogs barking, cows and saw the turkeys again at the farm. Great day in the saddle. Thank to Cindy Berard for pacing the front group,
