The Suburban Chicago CourierNews reports that Dan McGehee raced through 100 miles of the Fox Valley countryside in a record-setting 3:56:03. The 18.4-mile course meandered through the rural roads of Kaneville west of Aurora, where two UMCA officials were on hand to verify the distance and time. McGehee averaged 25.2 mph.
I was on the fence about Sunday's ride. I was leaning heavily in favor of joining the Randonneurs' 100K Urban Populaire, but I woke up humming "take me home country roads," so I packed the car and headed for Flaming Geyser State Park instead.
