THANKS!

Thanks everyone -- that was an awesome ride today. Thanks to Cary for picking out some great roads.

P.S. Jim -- you were right, it was all uphill on the way back (until the last big/long downhill). My altitude chart looks like a capital M. At least it was a gradual uphill, and we had the winds at our back.

P.P.S For anyone interested, I showed 3,181 feet of climbing, or about 50'/mile.

Great ride- lucked out on the weather! The peach cobbler and ice cream at Rock Island market hit the spot! Hope it was as good for you all as it was for me!
I love the route!!

Thanks Cary, the car show and blackberry cobbler at the finish were a nice touch as well!

Thanks Cary for a good ride today! The weather was perfect.

Mark, it felt uphill most of the way back! Thanks for the garmin tips today.
