Today was a good long ride that ended up being longer than planned. When the team coordinated todays ride to start and end in downtown Denver, no one realized that we would be impacted by the Saint Patricks Day Parade. Who knew that Denver has the 4th largest St. Paddys day parade in the country. The challenge is that we started on this side of the parade and wanted to get on to that side of the parade. "Denver's Finest did thier job and wouldn't allow us to cut through the parade route so we had to ride around the parade adding an extra 5 miles coming and going. Once we got on the correct side of the parade route, we had a great ride on a beautiful day from Downtown Denver to Downtown Golden along the Clear Clear trail. The ride was capped off with a celebration for our team hero, Leanne, a recent Lymphoma survivor. Amazing food and beer to replenish the lost carbos from todays 50 miler. I'll sleep nicely tonight.
Till next time,
Hugh
