My Garmin froze, and hence created this log manually.
My plan was to ride about 80 miles, but I could not bear the heat. By noon, it was close to 90 degrees, and by the time, and I finished 50 miles, with the pavement heat reflecting back and no shade, it was unbearable. So turned around.
The first 40 miles of the ride was very very scenic with the views of Mt Adams.
See http://www.troutlake.org/main/custom.asp?recid=23 for more info of this ride.
Due to snow, the green loop was not a full loop. Instead, we were asked to turn around after about 14.5 miles and get back to where we started from, and then start the yellow loop.
