James, let me add just a little perspective from an "Old farts" point of
view.  I was amazed at the camaraderie, good cheer and helpful attitude that
the TF teammates had the entire day.  These guys and gal were awesome!!!
They were great to ride with, took care of each other, and me.  Even when we
were riding in blazing sun (most of the morning 95+ degrees), and the whole
way home it was either a blustery headwind or it was raining (road grit
everywhere) , I never once heard anyone complain.  When the pace got a
little fast for some of us weaker riders there was never a fuss about
slowing down. We still averaged 19.1+ MPH for the entire 159 miles, not bad
for a tough day.

Let me say to Team Florida, Job Well Done, I would be happy to ride with
them ANYTIME.

Thanks for letting me ride with you on Sunday.

Doug

Club, Team,
Thanks for the awesome reports about the beach ride.  If you still want to
contribute to the GCC Newsletter/Facebook Doc/TF listserve report, the
deadline is far away.  If we publish online before then we can add to it any
time. Keep the comments coming.  As corny as it may sound people dig reading
about these epic rides (present company included).   James T. GCC News
