This day was threatening rain so I rode hard to get to the finish.  There were a few really big hills as we rode by the General Electric property in Schenectedy.  I didn't take time for many pictures except at the end.  On the way back home we drove through a hard rainstorm.  I was glad I missed it, but some of the slower riders probably got drenched.


this lady pulled two kids.
I bet when she got to Canajoharie she walked
