Yesterday was my longest single ride. It was about 24 miles (first time in spandex too) from our home to my mom's. I didn't drink enough and got a little dehydrated but this ride has been a goal of mine for a while. It was about eight miles of pavement and the rest was gravel. I know my partner likes gravel but I'm not a huge fan yet. I like where it's pretty packed and hard but all those spots where it's just been graded or it's washboarded are not fun.
