Summer SOULstice in Pictures
Here’s the pictures from this past weekends 155 mile Summer Soulstice ride. Another incredible journey down, this time shared with a great number of friends. An Epic day for sure.
21 of us took off at dawn, in the fog and drizzly skies and made our way through the Southern tier and into Northern PA. Crazy weather patterns, fog, rain, sunshine, downpours and epic views greeted us all along the way. We even got to do a little dirt-road drifting on our road bikes as always, it’s not a Hollow ride unless we are ripping up the dirt roads. 45 mph descents on seasonal roads on road bikes, yup that’s fun. Captain Conte yelling at us cause we rode 2.5 miles past the turn cause we were ripping up the descent, priceless.
7 flats total on the ride, 2 by myself! I felt great by the end of the ride and the prep for the 24 hour solo is coming along great. Perhaps it was the massive calorie intake I had during the ride; oatmeal creme pies, pizza slices, snickers bars, red bulls, pringles, orange cupcakes. How can you go wrong with all that tasty food

Have Fun!
