Cycles de Oro 2008 Tour to Tanglewood TR Photos and Map

Comments later, perhaps, but for now, here are the photos from the 2008 Cycles de Oro Tour to Tanglewood Training Ride. We did 36.5 or so on a pretty hot day, finishing in 90-plus degree sunshine. Here are the pics:
We had a nice time, eebee, Andrewinnc and me, and missed the other Roadskater.net folk but had a nice time with the two-wheelers. I don't recall any tandems, by the way, on this day. Skateylove, roadskater

Speed Topo Map: CdO Bike Ride Skate, Garmin Forerunner 305 .tcx
Check out this speed map I made from the Training Ride. There are 8 levels of speed where red is almost stopped and magenta is almost 36 mph (we backed off on the downhill thinking we might try the left turn then decided to coast but didn't really tuck, so we missed out on a bit of speed). This is one of the coolest, most interesting maps I've been able to put together from lots of attempts using various combinations of data, software and webware. Hope you find it useful!

Photo Thumbnail Bike Route Map: Garmin Forerunner 305 EXIF .tcx
Please test my experimental thumbnail photomap, bridging the EXIF data from my photos and my .tcx GPS data from my Forerunner 305. It shows the route we took (including a bit extra on the downhill left surprise as we rolled out straight over the Haw River and went back up to the turn, where there seemed to be no road name sign but there were markings, and we remembered the turn from the year before). Please let me know if you find this useful or interesting. I have been creating several samples of various maps that can be done with data from the Garmin Forerunner 305. It's not the best way to view the photos, of course. For those, see the link above to the roadskater.net classic photos site, rsn1.net.
Very useful map & data!
