Today was one of those days where we couldn’t get a break! We started off the morning by leaving the city as the 1st pace line. When we made it to 48th street we made our first turn onto York Street. Our group continued progressing down York Street until we were finally back at 8th street (the same one we left from). At this point we realized that a mistake may have been made and so we called our project manager, Grant. He said that there had been a mix up and we would need to rack back to the 1st turn. When we got back to the 1st turn we found out that there were 2 York streets within a few miles of each other and we had taken the wrong one.
Once we were back on the right track, we only made it a few miles before the wind kicked up over the plains making the ride much more difficult. To further complicate things our pace line of 6 people had 7 flat tires throughout the ride! I had 2 flat tires myself which was ironic because I had never had a flat tire before.
