Yes, it was a beautiful day in MoCo, MD! I got a late start but got in 31 hilly, tough miles near the Triadelphia reservoir. It would be fine with me if this weather never ended.![]()

I graduated to the real road today.
Hubby left from our driveway and I had instructions to meet him at a gravel lot on Stage Coach Rd at 2:00.
I put my bike on the truck and drove to the planned meeting point. He rolled in as I was putting on my shoes.
We took an out and back route through the fox hunting country of Thompson, GA. It was beautiful and so was the weather. Dave had taken this route for the first time last week and he wanted to share it with me. He is so sweet.
I rode 21 miles.
I had 3 options to choose from this morning - a 7:30 ride with 2 of the guys from the shop ride, the 8:30 ride with 7rider and her small group or the regular 8:30 shop ride. Surprisingly, I chose the earliest ride. I say 'surprisingly' because I have a repuation for sleeping in late on the weekends and missing all the morning rides!Like everyone else has said, the weather was fantastic. Lots of amusing banter back and forth during the entire ride. I ended up doing 42 miles.

North/central Virginia was equally gorgeous after the rain of the past week. I drove down to Charlottesville & hooked up with my son (visiting from Denver), for 44 gorgeous miles down into Albemarle/Nelson counties, then back into town for the UrbanCross races. My neice, Kat, (works in a bike shop in Arlington) raced. Great fun & a wonderful way to spend the day.

Did a nice 20 miler with a group from Angels Camp to Murphys... absolutely gorgeous fall colors and lots of pretty streams!
We got too much snow, close to 6inches. DH and I went up to the mountains and hiked around. I loaded up my pack with extra weight to get in a good workout. It was so pretty out there. We got in only about 6 miles. Not too bad considering there was quite a bit of snow, plus I had to go into work for a bit in the afternoon. In a few more weeks the trails should be ready for some x-country skiing.
No ride today. We took the big dog to the dog park for the first time. What a hoot. I'm loving this not yet winter weather!
