Another beautiful day for a brevet or two. St. Louis Randonneuring hosted a 200 and a 300 kilometer brevet out of Edwardsville IL. Six riders chose the 200K and 14 riders rode the 300K. Only one rider did not finish the ride.
Challenging all riders was the usual stiff breese (wind) out of the south. The winds lasted all day and slowed progress until making the turn back toward the north. Once the sun set, temperatures dropped and riders donned additional clothing and made it back to Edwardsville. For the 300K event, the last riders pulled in before 12:30 AM, well in advance of the 20 hour cutoff.
Congratulations to all finishers. I look foward to seeing you on May 8th for another brevet. We will have a 200K/300K and 400K options available.
