My birthday is in July too!

I did not take my planned route as bad weather is forecast so I wanted to be able to sprint home if necessary. So I just rode for mileage. Did hit a personal best speed that's not in a descent, 29.7 mph.

Got blown off the road by a blue GMC SUV. If I were faster, and she was slower, I might have gotten into the first fist fight in my 51 years.

But then later, I was riding down a little country road and 2 little boys, 8ish said, "Wow, a bike rider." So I stopped and talked to them. They were duly impressed.

Finally headed home when the wind began to really pick up. But still a fun ride!
