The first Bike the Bend was today. Good times, sore butts. It was 30 mile roundtrip. Instead of having to deal with parking & transporting bikes, I just joined up at the route near my house, which shaved a few miles off. It was a 30 mile round-trip, when I broke off from our group, we were right at 20/21. So, I figure I did just around 23 total. It was a perfect amount of time. My knee was just starting to get irritated and all the SAG stops were out of cookies.
It was a good first attempt by the city/cities. There were a couple of areas of opportunities: There were 2 intersections that either needed a volunteer/better signage. And…then there were the geese. Due to missing one of the turns, we were accosted by a gaggle of geese and their goslings. They should have selected a better place to sun themselves than the middle of the sidewalk.
