I realize I didn't do my ride report except for the near miss. The weather was brilliant. Tried out some new roads, and visited some old ones.
On the new ones, I got kinda, sorta lost, so decided to check google maps on my new Palm. Bad news. I can't read the maps without my glasses.
Did 32.67 hilly miles, max grade 14.5%.
Veronica & I did a 200K permanent, and we lived to tell the tale!
Actually, her survival was not the one in question ...
One of us will write up our adventures soon - I have an early meeting at work so I won't be able to write anything up until tonight.
