If you didn&#8217;t come, you missed a great ride!<\/p>\n<p>One thing I wrestle with is the idea of driving somewhere to ride my bike. This ride was close enough to home (not quite 20km, or about 12 miles) that I decided to &#8220;ride to the ride&#8221;. I thought that doing the 80-km\/50-mile ride, plus 20 km back and forth, would be a stretch, but it would be doable. Turns out that on latter part of the 2nd loop I was getting pre-cramp indications, and decided to remain on the &#8220;home&#8221; side of the Saluda river. Still made a 102 km (63 mile) ride out of it, which is my longest of the season.<\/p>\n<p>A good time was had by all, and I&#8217;m sure we raised a chunk of money for Jake:<\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/photos\/111937200226914845828\/albums\/5897285878450913057\/5897285875523423650?pid=5897285875523423650&amp;oid=111937200226914845828\"><IMG SRC=\"http:\/\/wildcorvid.org\/media\/IMG_20130629_074757_548_tn.jpg\"><\/A><\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/photos\/111937200226914845828\/albums\/5897285878450913057\/5897285959722846162?pid=5897285959722846162&amp;oid=111937200226914845828\"><IMG SRC=\"http:\/\/wildcorvid.org\/media\/IMG_20130629_085049_014_tn.jpg\"><\/A><\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/photos\/111937200226914845828\/albums\/5897285878450913057\/5897286015087429842?pid=5897286015087429842&amp;oid=111937200226914845828\"><IMG SRC=\"http:\/\/wildcorvid.org\/media\/IMG_20130629_095153_345_tn.jpg\"><\/A><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last weekend&#8217;s Jake Calvert Benefit ride was a success, judging by the turnout.
