T.I.R.E. Bike Event Day #3



T.I.R.E. Ride Day #3: 32.04 miles
Comments: Ride Time was 2 hours 19 minutes, average speed: 13.8

The last day of T.I.R.E. was planned to be a ride with Ron McKernan. All riders set out through town at 9:30 a.m. towards North River Road with Ron in the lead. The route was great, probably one of my best in the County—rolling hills, some climbs but great descents. The weather again today was outstanding! The group stayed together to witness the awesome descent of Witt Hill. The gathering outside Oak Park Inn following the ride was very uplifting as riders thanked Dennis and I for the wonderful routes. It was tough to say good-bye knowing our week of riding was ending—this biking vacation (MTR, Post MTR and T.I.R.E.) topped our list of best trips taken (including London)! Greeting us in the mail when we arrived home was a beautiful card from Joan and John Laabs thanking us for our part in planning the Post MTR ride in Lanesboro. We have met so many wonderful people along our biking travels and they have all played a part in making our lives more enjoyable.
