I'm glad the route worked out well for you. Had you done that before? Joining up with Plano East, I mean? It was great seeing Rick, Gerry, and Susan, whom I hadn't seen in a very long time. Didn't get to ride with Rick or Gerry, since I managed to get trapped at the back with the more casually-paced group. Did get to ride with Nelson for a few miles, which was nice since it had been quite a while since I crossed paths with him, too. I noticed that your group included a rider on a Strada, but I didn't recognize the guy. Was he an RBENT'er that I haven't met? You had a 16 mph average? You must've been moving pretty quickly during the sections where you weren't riding with the Plano East group. I ended with 15.1, and that's only because I broke away to ride with James, once we got to Murphy road, on the way back. The pace was a little frustrating, but it was probably a good thing, considering how little I've ridden lately. It also means that John is successfully keeping the group's pace in line what's been advertised—which we know rarely happens.
