Comments:

First half went great then Janet forgot to "start" her MapMyRide on her phone and slammed into the back of me. She went down hard but I managed to stay up. So hard it knocked my back tire off and crushed my bottle cages. SAG took her in with a hurt elbow and we agreed with our daughter having the truck that I could finish the race. She ended up at the ER with a broken elbow.
Post race
Warm down:

Nothing really. Biked to the hospital to find my wife.

Event comments:

Good hilly ride! Not much of a fan fair when you finish. In fact nothing at all at the finish. They were serving pizza, fruit, drinks, etc in front of the high school when done.
