Yesterday was a blast. Robert & I got up early to join lots of other bikers in beautiful buffalo gap for the tour the gap. I chose 25 miles Robert road 48. I had a lot more fun this time because I was in a pack of bikers. You can catch more air going up those hills.:) the weather was perfect.. I was a bit slower this year too but still in the top riders. It took me two hours, last year it was an hour 1/2. I had to stop 4 times. twice to save my water bottle from slipping out of its little holder, and the other two times to let my butt and wrists rest. I  learned when you freeze the water bottles that they clopse into themselves when melting. This is why my water bottles would not stay in their little holders. Roberts friend Scott & his daughter Ell followed Roberts race in their truck with bannans & water a suport team like the tour de france guys. Scott said lots of ridders came up to him and Ell for bannans and water. Scott had so much fun being a part of it all. It is such a blessing to have such happy fun friends.Robert has needed a guy buddy for a long time. And because Scott is so upbeat it really helps robert to be up beat. The 10 mile riders came in first and then us 25 ers. I road in , in time to see the big Buffalo Gap peraid.(sp?) all 4 minets, of it. heehee. about 15 min or so here came the top 48 mile riders. WOW are those guys fast. They road through the hills of hwy 84 and that road if ruff..... Robert was in the top 15or 20 and he did the 48 in 3 hours. We watched some of the 70 Mile guys ride in & man oh man do some of those riders have legg muscels . We ate hot dogs at the plaza and headed home for a long nap. The day was finished off at Pernies with Scott and Ell & a drive of the corse in the red convertable. Wonderful Friends & great food & fun.

Great memories as Sott always says.
