After Rose got off work Saturday afternoon, we headed to Oklahoma City and spent the evening visiting my sister. I got up Sunday morning and headed to Mitch Park in Edmond (16 miles from my sister’s place), and rode the OBS Streak.
The first 40 miles of this ride were constant rollers. Most were not as long as those on the Goatneck route, but they were plenty enough to have a hill slug like me huffing and puffing. The route flattened out a bit for the last 25 miles.
This was a very good ride. I don’t know exactly how many rode it, but it had to be several hundred. There were a few rough stretches of road and some chipseal, but most of the roads were good, and the traffic control was very good. Johnny Corino’s provided a pasta lunch at the end of the ride, and that truly hit the spot. I left just as the live band was getting started.
It was great seeing you again, Trey, and meeting Mrs oumed. Trey also has two of the cutest kids you’ve ever seen. I ended up with 64.5 miles at a 17.3 mph average. The Garmin showed 2650 feet of climbing.
