We had a goal of getting 5 riders Sub 5 on the 104 mile course. We trained aggressively trying to peak at the event. We arrived at the start line with 15 riders- Donna, Gil, Willie, George, Steve S., Nels, Larry, Michael, Laura, David F., Renee, Richard B., Dan P , Tim D. & Steve N. and his CAS crew. All riders get the same 7:00 am start time so it was important to get in line early, we were there at 5:00 am and it made a difference allowing us to stay with the fast riders and not loosing anytime having to weave through the mass of slower riders. The result 14 finishers, almost everyone setting a PR for a century! We had 5 Velo members ride Sub 5 a total of 6 riders in our group: Donna, Gil, Willie, Tim, George & Steve N.. A job well done by all, congrats.
