Holiday weekend rides

[tulip]

21 derful miles on Saturday along the Chesapeake Bay, and 40 on Monday. It was extremely muggy on Monday. Liquid air. Ick. But a beautiful ride through fields of sunflowers.

Did about 27 miles and then returned to the park from whence I came with the cycling group.

I was going back to my car when I slipped on a wet algae surface. Worst crash to date. I have bruises everywhere including on my right cheek. Also terrible road rash on my legs/face. It hurts like crazy this morning - just really body sore. But my head was fine thanks to my hemet. About 9 months since I fell into a ditch and replaced the last one, but I am happy to do so.

I need helmet insurance. Had I not had it, though, I may not have lived. I hit my head HARD on concrete.
