About 32 miles in started to pour and hail on us. Roads had lots of cracks in them. 1/2 mile before the finish got a piece of glass lodged in my tire.

Event comments:

Having down this race last year, I have to say it was better run. The pre-race info said their would be lunch at the beginning and their wasn't. Last year there were 4 race stops and it was cut to two. It was also advertised as a 50 mile ride (it was 54 last year) and they cut it to 46 (I got to 52 by looping back to find my wife after going up the final hill). Post race activities were good with showers, beer, and sausages.
