No Easter Bunnies on this Ride

Eleven of the regulars showed for this mornings Amherst Gold Spring Classic Training ride. I rode the hour to the start and back home afterwards. For being such a dreary day, the ride turned out to be a good one with a few flats and no rain showers that were originally in the forecast today. Ride stats below:
