Up,up and away today!  Haven’t done as much climbing of 10 to 12% grades for many weeks but fortunately only 42 miles.  A beautiful day, sunshine, blue cloudless skies and, oh, did I mention Hot.  Similar forecast for tomorrow but a bit warmer but hey it’s all good!  Lots of tree debris, particularly on the trail, from the storms that came through last night!

Ed and Pat O’Hearn came to Bennington this afternoon.  It was really great to see them!  They came with us to the map meeting/happy hour and everyone enjoyed meeting them and hearing about their cycling experiences.  Afterwards Mark, Bob and I went to dinner with them at the Madison Brewing Company.
