I packed my recumbent up in my car and headed across the river to participate in the Louisville Bicycle Club's ice cream ride. This ride is traditionally held the weekend after the Old Kentucky Home Tour as part of a club meeting. The route is about as flat as one can get in this area. It is an out and back route from Jeffersonville to near Utica, Indiana. The ride out was great for I had a nice tailwind assisting us and the headwind back really gave me quite the workout. I logged 20 miles today and averaged 17.0 mph - my best so far on this bike. I felt great and did not hesitate to ask for two scoops of ice cream after the ride (the club picks up the tab).
