Needed to find some shade, just didn't feel that great!!! But after I changed I felt better, and also drank some gatorade!!!

Nothing really just need to practice for the longer distance!!!

Good job on your race! I hear ya about living in flat lands. I've been worried about traveling to where there might be hills too. Of course us flatlanders get a lot of practice pedaling into headwinds. LOL!

Nice to see you again. You have a pretty good group there from Fargo.

I look forward to seeing you next year... or maybe over here at the Headwaters 100. I am not sure, but I may be driving the sag wagon
