Podiums and such.. Great work to everyone that pedaled a bike Sunday! https://my.raceresult.com/170147/results

I had many compliments on the views! I am so glad that it’s more than a ride! I am a fan of the views as well, and there’s certainly something unique about the Tall Grass Prairie region of Oklahoma! This is a view from our 100mi ride looking east over the Drummond Ranch. Off through the valley about 5mi is the TGP Preserve. - Mike Guillen...
