From lunch to Dunreith was very tough as we got tireder and the day got hotter. After Dunreith it became overcast and the sun got lower in the sky and that little bit of coolness gave me new life.<br /><br />It IS a great event for the club, although if I can make one suggestion, next year RAIN ride Vincennes to Evansville! ; )Kenhttp://info.law.indiana.edu/sb/page/normal/1065.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3630310850741708786.post-64704532767549431312010-07-19T18:33:12.523-04:002010-07-19T18:33:12.523-04:00Congratulations CE and Ken!Congratulations CE and Ken!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3630310850741708786.post-21195350225802100712010-07-19T00:26:33.088-04:002010-07-19T00:26:33.088-04:00What an awesome event RAIN 2010 was.

Had the pleasure of riding with some of this years DeCycles riders too - I asked them how this compared to some of their days in the Pacific Mountains this year and they said it was EASY! If I had enough breath at the time I would have laughed. Shane snapped a rear wheel spoke before the 2nd stop - we thought we had it covered - we had a spare wheel right? Wrong. Eugene's spare was campy, Shane rides shimano. But Eugene had everything we (he) needed to swap the rear cassettes over and we were back in business in about an hour.<br />First Time Rain Rider and First Time finisher! 11 Hrs 42minsRob Evsnoreply@blogger.com
