Then on Sunday the KP Spouse and I did the McHenry County Bicycle Club’s Udder Century Invitational with a friend of ours. We did the metric century, 62 miles, which was plenty after my triathlon exertions on the previous day.
McHenry County has lots of lovely, rolling countryside, and great biking roads. The weather was glorious until about mile 50, when the rain started. We had a deluge for about a mile or so, and rain for about 7 miles total, but it was OK. I think we are going to spend a lot more time riding out there!
What a coincidence, at the eastern KP outpost we also spent the day outside and were also rained on.
A slight difference was that instead of riding 62 miles on a bike, we were sitting on the lawn at Wolf Trap for the annual “Swamp Romp,” drinking, eating, dancing (kinda sort of), and generally being happy in the rain while listening to Geno Delafose and French Rockin’ Boogie, Sonny Landreth, Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys, and the New Orleans Social Club.
