Up the Dam Hill Ride

Seven slightly crazy riders showed up for this evening's OWLS ride. Tom R had planned for us to go down Old 37 (almost) to Harrodsburg, then up the big hill toward the Monroe Dam and back toward town on Strain Ridge. But where was Tom? Worried about a little light rain and cool temperatures, we guess. It would have been okay weather for March, but this is the middle of May.

We were left to our own devices and just followed Tom's route. It wasn't until the way back that we started to feel just a little chilly.

Despite being a small group we welcomed a new rider to the group, Rachel, as well as her friend Cameron who has ridden with the Bryan Park training group a couple of times.  They're both strong riders and, together with Jen, got a little ahead of the rest of us. We came along a slightly different way in Smithville and didn't seem them, so, as it turned out, we accidentally went home two different ways.
