200K Permanent 08/04 & 08/11
Jul 31^st, 2007, 10:00am

Hi Folks,

Going to ride with Dan Driscoll and some other LSR folks out of Greenville on the OK is OK permanent this Saturday at 0630, and the following Saturday Ray and I are planning to ride the the Prairie Hill Roundup staring in Italy at 0700. Anybody is welcome to join us although I think LSR/RUSA membership would be needed if you don't have it.

Take Care,
Nelson.

The min to complete the ride is @9.3 mph with stops. That said Mark, Dan, and Jorge are usually looking to do a 200K in Sub 9 hours, sometimes sub 8 hours. My typical completion times are between 9-10.5 hours. Cruising speeds are 16-17mph avg typically. Take Care, Nelson.

Not a problem, thanks. That puts it in the range of my typical experiences.

If Paul and I aren't looping the TTTT course on the 11th, I may join you and Nelson.

Yes I hear ya! boy the heat was brutal on me Saturday as well, with 100 degree temperatures forcast for this Saturday rest assured I will be taking it easy in the heat and hydrating/electrolyting well. You guys be careful also, or better yet get 'er done before it gets too hot. I will ride more quickly in the morning and shut it down to survival speed for the heat I imagine. I learned alot about on the road recovery last Saturday, and the fact that it can happen if you're careful.

Take Care,
Nelson.
