11/8 Wednesday Night Wrapup

19.81 miles/10.2 mph ave/1585 feet ascent

Four people showed up for the night ride. John, Doug, Sarah and I started at Mason Rehab at 6pm. We rode out Middle Creek and turned up Miller Hill (gravel). Pretty good climb with lots of switchbacks. There is a nice downhill and climb before Limestone and Dallas road (paved). About two thirds of the way to Stone Church we took a short cut onto Stanford Road (gravel) which has some rollers before it hooks up with Stone Church Road (paved). A couple of rollers later we turned right onto Halsteed Hill (gravel). We stopped halfway down to find John's water bottle that he juggled. Halsteed runs right into Middle Wheeling Creek (paved). All flat back to Rt 40. Rt 40 back into Elm Grove.

Dave continued his string of absences. I called him around 4:30pm to remind him about the ride, but he was a no show.
