Airport Ride, Long Option

First time doing the long option. Marc and Dana met me at the Carter Center and we rode over to the start. Found Remling on the way over. Once there we saw Konnie, Mark, Andreas, Michelle, John and others. Mark was off the front most of the ride... he's just too strong. The first portion to the nature break was easy. Rolling hills section wasn't too bad. But at the split they really picked it up and we were in for a long hard ride back. All three of us made it and took turns pulling at the front of the paceline. We're all in better shape than we were at this point last year.
