53.7 mile ride. Road out out and back up Utah Hiil. I enjoyed the workout last week and thought it'd be good to hit it as a last chance workout before lotoja. Was able to meet up with Ed and Brandon plus one more of thier buddies out in Santa Clara. It was nice to ride with a bigger group that was able to push the pace.
I told them that from Kayenta up to the summit I was going to ride it semi hard and that I'd wait at the summit to rejoin. So that's what happened. I was able to get into a good flow and worked the climb pretty good.
Then the four of us grouped up on the downside and burned that back into Ivins. Pretty good ride overall. Nice way to end the week and month. Ended Aug with 1,049 riding miles. Kind of fun to go over 1,000 for the first time.
Running sucked though. But it was nice to give the hip some time off this week and hopefully in the long run it'll help out....
