[merlin]

Here are a few pictures that I took of Escape of New York. Me, Louie and Mike did 100+miles and over 5,000+ feet of climbing. Overall all, this event was the best that I have joined. I will surely do this again next year!

Awesome, guys! How were the climbs in the century route? What time did you get back at Sakura Park? It's unfortunate we didn't see you guys! Me and Diegs had fun doing the 65-mile route!

It is too bad you missed us. Congrats on finishing 65miler. We got to the park at @2:30pm with our smell the rose pace.

The climbs were awesome! They were challenging, steep and longish. I am sure you had your fair share of climbing. He he he. As steep as the climbs, we were rewarded with fast twisty descends. Curving it at 47MPH! !! FUN, Pain and Fun. 2:1!

Join use next time.

Thanks for the complement boys and gals.

@jon, let's do it.

@rachet, we missed you man!

[giantdefyant]

Wow almost 50mph! That's fast! Yep, we had some steep climbs too and on one of them I had to pedal off my saddle. Both my legs started cramping on the way back to the park. Congrats too!

Doing 65miler is serious business my friend. Good job!

giantdefyant, our next ride is the Brands Cycle and Fitness 55 mile ride. Trust me, We will be all over this ride.
