Pre-race routine:

Got up early to travel to Sioux Center from Sioux City. About 60 mile drive. Jeff B, drove and we found a pretty good place to park close to the start of the route. Rained a little on the way up but the skies cleared up pretty fast.

Comments:

Not a race, more of a controlled large group ride. Jeff and I took turns leading a pass line of 10 - 12 good bikers. His experience level in a pass line is minimal and needs more practice at it. Hot as heck that day. Wind was brisk, in our faces for most of the 60 miles. Couple of nice climbs followed by steady decents. Coming into Cherokee was a blast. Really fast (over 45 mph) down hill with minimal wind.

Enjoyed a couple of Sam Adams at a bar waiting for the ride back to Sioux Center.
What would you do differently?:

Ride the whole week!!! 2013, that will be the case!
