Day 149 - 184 BMP

Thursday is group ride day. Took off work early to get in a ride with my riding buddies. It's great that we can get together at least one day a week to ride together and forget about work, family, and other stresses of life. We met up Mission Trails at 5:30 p.m. We hit the trails. As usual, Nico put in a fast pace for the first few miles. I took over and slowed things down a little to catch my breath. Then Grapeape flew by me and it was off to the races. We all struggled to keep up with Grape. My heart rate monitor maxed out at 184 bpm trying to keep up, the highest I have gotten it. We slowed down after a while. Came across AC, Richard, and Hector riding on the trails. They put the pedal down and it was back to the races. AC and Brian led the charge. They rode strong, dropping us. We finished and rode back to the parking lot. It was a good, hard workout.
