Our ride started out by riding through CC Res. which was a lot of fun because we caught up with the two other groups and merged in to one huge peloton for a little while. After riding through the park we hoped on Jordan and then made a quick Rt. on Briarwood. Tom & Dave didn't make the light at Arapahoe & Jordan so they booked it straight down Jordan and met us at the Loaf-n-Jug for our first stop. After our first quick break we got back on Jordan and took it all the way till it T-boned into Hess. Making a left on Hess we rode that till we crossed Motsenbocker which then turns into Crowfoot. We rode on Crowfoot which has a nice gradual climb and made it to our turn around point which was a fire station on Crowfoot.
After a little break we headed back down and picked up Solomon (who flatted) and also Eric and Arilio who had stopped to help him out. We stopped once more at the Loaf-n-Jug and that is where the two Tom's decided they wanted to get some more miles in so they headed down the 470 trail and got in an extra 10 miles. The rest of us would've had a really fast trip back down Jordan although we had a little head wind and we didn't have much luck hitting the traffic lights either. We seemed to get stopped by each one! We all made it back to the shop although Solomon picked up a second flat by the Golf course which was unfortunate, because I had given the tube I had to Dave that had a flat at our second Jug stop. He ended up calling a friend who picked him up and brought him back to the shop.
Cruising down Potomac, you'll have to excuse my camera strap...
