LaCrosse, WIS (17Jul08)
Hi Everyone,
What an interesting day!
We had a 90 mile day to do … then the thunderstorms started and it started to rain!
Well, we ride in the “rain” … so the 1st 30 miles was in the “rain”!
Then it settled down and we all rode together to keep our spirits up … lots of hills and climbs today!
Then a one mile climb at about 75 miles and just when I finished climbing it … the big thunderstorm … hit us!
So 15 of us hung out in a small barn (check out the pix I took today)
After the big thunderstorm passed over … it continued to rain… so we rode the last 15 miles to LaCrosse in the rain!
An incredible day … an incredible memory for all of our cyclists!

Larry,
Sounds like an exciting day on the road,… thunder, lightning and rain. Good thing that you are experienced in riding in tough conditions. Stay safe and have fun.
