Dover Loop: 20.63 miles
Tandem Pedal Time: 1 hour 33 minutes, average speed 13.1
Goal reached: 512 miles for August and we still have a few more riding days in the month. We enjoyed a quiet supper ride to Dover and while eating our “Tuesday Tacos” heard on the news that hurricane Isaac was preparing to roll into the Orange Beach, AL area. Our 2012 biking season started in Orange Beach and we were familiar with the images we were viewing on the large screen at the Roadhouse. The evacuation process went into effect and all that could be done was to wait it out. It was a relief to hear that the storm was downgraded as the evening went on—what a relief.

We headed home to start getting ready for our main event of this biking season: The Midwest Tandem Rally being held in Middleton, WI will begin Friday, August 31. The event is being hosted by our COWS Tandem Club and has been in the planning for two years. We are expecting over 400 teams—very exciting!
