Today is the first official day of my summer vacation and I decided to host a club ride in celebration. We rode over a freshly paved road - so smooth, saw several tractors in the fields, encountered very few cars and had a beautiful day to boot. I was a bit sad for this is my last club ride for awhile. I had to cancel the others I had on the schedule due to my upcoming surgery on the 12th. I had a great ride and now it is time to get my dogs loaded for it is time for their annual vet visit.
