rode only 22miles with 1200 feet of climb. didn't sleep all that well last night. Just so stressed out from my job. So the ride was nice to relieve my stress and clear my body of all that negative energy.
pleasant weather with light breeze. I enjoyed my tranquail ride today.

I increased my personal long distance record today! I put in 65 miles! I planned out a loop almost 22 miles long right around my house, so I could take a break at the house after every loop. I'm diabetic and have been having problems with my levels on my rides, so I wanted to stay close for this one.
The wind kicked up to about a steady 15mph with gusts to 22 or so the last loop, which sucked. But I only had it in my face for about 1/3 of the way each loop.
Took me a total of 5 hours and 11 minutes--just over 12 mph average. Not bad, I think, given I'm still riding my 5 year old Raleigh Hybrid and just started riding in April.Last edited by squirrell; 08-21-2008 at 01:40 AM.
