    June 23 ride reports...

    I took a short ride today (12.6 miles) 'cause we're heading out of town to Knoxville, TN for the weekend. I rode well - still not 100% from my brief headcold, but averaged 16-17.5 in even the shortest straight sections of road. I looked a bit like Veronica's bag of skittles. At least my ... shoes and helmet matched the bike (silver/blue), my jersey and gloves matched (yellow), and my socks - well they are just cute (PI - pink flowers).

    Yeeeowwww! Am I a Real Wild Woman or not?
    Rode out to the Israel/Jordan border where the rivers meet. Heard my beautiful bee-eaters trilling away and then looked down to the sandy track just next to the Border. The First Patrol jeep had not gone over it yet with the rake and so all the night tracks were there - wild pig, jackals and a lot of different tiny birdy feet too with beak-poke-holes...Did I feel like The First Woman!
    And then I saw an even more wonderful thing ... a track made by a snake.

    Absolutely perfect morning!

    Rode about 8mi of easy trails on my MTB, exploring some of the area where I just moved to. It was so peaceful and beautiful to be out there. I then went and test rode road bikes.

    I hosted a 45 mile club ride today. Only one brave person showed, guess the threat of rain kept the rest at home. We stayed dry the entire ride. Skies were gray, temps in the low 70's and humidity hanging at around 60%, it was a prefect day to ride.

    I tried a different route to aviod the train that I had been catching the last couple of days. It worked, and I got some extra miles in.

    I rode with my SO, 35 miles, faster than I have ever averaged (15mph which I know isn't fast for some of you women, but it is fast for me!) It felt good to get out before the thunder showers started. It was a good ride.
