Short recap of the Meet in the Middle Ride yesterday. Seven of us met in Sioux Falls and rode to Beresford, fighting a 20 MPH wind the whole way. A couple of us joked as we were leaving that it might take us 3 hours to get there. It almost did. I showed an average speed between 12 and 13 MPH for the first half of the trip.
We met with 7 riders from Vermillion, they enjoyed the tailwind most of the way! One guy even rode in from Yankton.
We ate at Emily's Cafe. Food was good. The help was...interesting. Don't go there with a big group, it freaks out the waitress.
The ride back to Sioux Falls was good. It was getting hot, but the wind at our backs kept us moving at a good pace. I rode with Biking Brady. I only had to ask him to slow down a couple of times.
It was a fun ride! Total of 72 miles on a hot and windy summer day. We should do it again!
