What a great day for the Prairie Cycle Club Fall Metric Century!

We had beautiful weather and a great turnout for a day of riding around Mahomet and the surrounding countryside.

A huge thank you to all of our volunteers who helped with check-in, the rest stop, SAG support, setup, and everything else that made the ride possible. And thanks to everyone who came out to ride with us!

Here are a few photos from a great day on the bike.

Just one (Hello Trek Bloomington!) of 50+ folks at our Members Metric Century ride. Welcome to new members :) :)
My "weather goddess" reputation is enhanced tho' it was a tiny bit nippy (48 degrees) at teh start and ... the East winds picked up at the end ...(normally it would be tailwind in...)

This pic is a few Saturdays old -- yesterday's crew was about this big! (My phone decided to stop the automatic upload, and I bonked that day and forgot -- people, if you donate blood on Thursday, you need to eat before you ride on a hot day ;P :P )
