Arrival at Gloucester High School




Stats: We rode 62 miles on our last day under blue skies with perfect 75 degree temperatures.  Upon arrival at the high school we crossed the almost-there finish line.  It was "almost there" because we still had the 1 mile ride to the ocean and tire dip to complete the ride.  At the school we were given leis and all the riders already in, staff  and families cheered for each of us as we arrived.  It was exciting to arrive with Ingrid, Scott and Susan there and all the families and riders cheering for Tom and I as we pulled in.  After arriving we hugged and congratulated each other with feelings of relief and euphoria while we waited at the school for all the riders to arrive before parading to the ocean.  Seeing Scott there was very special and totally unexpected.
