Hah. I put on baggy shorts, a t-shirt, and rode around the neighborhood. I only did 8 miles and I suppose the cycling shoes, gloves, and the fact I was on an Orbea ratted me out as an incognito cyclist but it was fun

no ride for me today. After a long day at work, DH and I are busy getting things ready for a backpacking trip. Can't wait, 4 days of backpacking away from everything. Although I will miss my bike and dog

Yep, rest day for me today after a long ride yesterday. I did do 15 minutes of recovery riding on a gym recumbent, but that doesn't really count as a ride!

I rode twice today. I started my day off riding, measuring and marking the route I plan to use for the club ride I'm hosting on Friday. It is a great rural route with lots of beauty country to take in and very few cars to deal with. Sadly, my old computer decided half way through the ride to start acting up again and the mileage I'm sure is off by .5 - 1.0. It really shouldn't be a big deal given I marked all the turns with my beautiful green "Dan Henry" mark. This morning's ride was around 37 miles at a very leisurely pace (my legs are beat after the century on Saturday and the twenty mile ice cream ride yesterday).
The second ride was a recovery ride with the club. In reality it seems silly to drive 50 miles round trip to ride 13 miles but I enjoy the ride and look forward to the dinner aferward with some of the ladies in the club. The ride was nice, the company and dinner following were equally as nice.
No new personal best were set today, I simply rode to get out of the house, stretch my legs and adjust my brain chemistry.Marcie
