Lufkin's Pineywoods Purgatory--Page Two

Gary rode the Pineywoods Purgatory October 6th.

Here are some more pictures of the ride.

This cyclist went down after experiencing "chain suck" where the chain slips off the lowest chainring. It can stop your pedal stroke abruptly with little time to recover. He was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital. Broken clavicle was the call.


Bananas are always a popular pick at the rest stops!


The final rest stop about six miles from the finish.


Gary came up on this duo the last five miles of the ride. Even this young couple complained of being bushed by the tough century ride.
