.14 mi this morning, just going around campus and getting a feel for the bike outside of the controlled setting of the empty parking lot. First "on my own" ride too. It was nice--nice day, nice part of campus, no one out...

70 miles around Lake Istokpoga. A beautiful calm day and a wonderful group let me get my highest average ever on the ride. Would have been perfect if two pit bulls had not bolted into the road about 10 miles from home. One of the guys I was riding with couldn't avoid hitting the dog and went down pretty hard. He will be fine, but it was very frustrating. I know that Animal Control has been called at least once before. The owner had not been able to control one of the dogs and he actually ripped through his collar. I made another report to Animal Control, but they are not staffed on the weekend. Had several of the bike club members over for dinner. It was a perfect way to end a good weekend.
