Dipping tires

Here we are yesterday arriving at end for traditiinal front tire dip In Mississippi at end of ride. Weren't able to dip back tire in Missouri at start due to residual flooding in that area.
Dont have all stats together, however each day's (7 days total) ride was between 59 mi. (shortest) and 75 mi. (longest) with most falling in mid 60 range. We were told it was 2nd hottest ride on record (in 49 yr history). Every day was sunny except for one that had cloud coverage and a few slight showers (a welcome relief!)
It was an incredible week of fun and very challenging riding. Lots of hills and more cyclists than you can imagine seeing in one place. Towns had stream of riders go through from as early as 5 a.m. well through early evening.
WOW! What an experience!!
