NEWTS ride. I would say we were not quite ready for this. The day didn't start well, on I94 on the way to the start, we heard a odd bump. Upon parking we were shocked to see the tandem canted over to one side, the front fork no longer attached! Once started, after 1 mile I realized I had forgotten to pump up the rear tire, so back to the car. Off again, slowly windeing through Reading suburbs and getting lost as there was a missing street sign.. then again off track with some poor cue sheet directions, added 4.8 miles extra there. The last 8 or so miles were on flat, and fast, but heavily trafficked roads, so not much fun there either. It was good to socialize afterwards, although we were both feeling really wiped.
