    Tried out part of a new route segment added onto one I've ridden before. The addition was hillier and furthest point out from start. Wondered how that would go lol. Ended up going pretty well.

    34miles total. The whole loop is 40mi. Wanted to do that. But, was "good" and decided to stick with the TE advice of adding my miles on more gradual. Good advice (as always)...

    My quads are sore from climbing. A bit tired. But not totally spent. Good compromise.

    Good ride on a beautiful sunny day!

    Hill workout with DH. Speed is coming up with less downshifting and a few sprints. I got cocky and let him add on a few miles--hint, when you hit 30 mph going downhill it won't be fun on the way back up. At one point, speed was 0 mph (stopped on the side of the road--threatened to throw up Mountain Dew on him--he laughed--and backed up).
