Desperado Dual 107 Mile Bike Ride

Jenna and I after the race.
On Saturday, July 21, Jenna and I road the 107 mile bike race starting in Panguitch, Utah.  Jeff, Jenna and Nova will be moving to San Antonio, TX in 3 weeks, so Jenna and I decided to ride one last century together before that happened.   It was a perfect day for a ride.  It was cooler than normal and overcast. In fact during the last 8 miles it rained on us hard, but boy did it feel good.  Jenna had rode this ride before.  She set a goal to do the race in 6 hours.  That is 37 minutes faster than she did two years ago.  Jenna went out like lightening.  She was in great riding shape.  We worked together so well, drafting off of each other when one would get tired and needed a break.  Jenna and I ended up finishing in a total time of 5 hrs and 46 mins.  She ended up knocking almost an hour off her time.  I have rode this ride now 7 times, and my best time has been 5 hrs and 38 mins.   Congratulations Jenna for crushing your goal.
