Weekend Rides?

Did 61 miles on Saturday out in the horse country, slightly rural West side. For part of the ride I explored a new trail that took me into some real farm country and it was all headwind on the way out but a lovely tailwind on the way back to my rest area. Yesterday just a quick 19 mile jaunt to the Mississippi River and back. It was a beautiful weekend. Next weekend is the MS-150.

I wanted to do that ride but was too late to arrange lodging in the middle as my motorhome is inconveniently 600 miles south of me right now. Hope you have a great ride!

Rode 170 miles over Saturday and Sunday in the NC Tour de Cure. This was my first organized ride, on more hills than I've ever trained on, riding longer than I've ever riden, and I absolutely LOVED it!

It still feels like a dream (though my legs and right knee would disagree, sore but not terribly) and I can't believe I did it. I know a good portion is because the staff and volunteers were fabulous. I felt like the only thing I needed to worry about was pedaling.

My weekend riding - 80 miles on Saturday, 92 miles on Sunday, 77 miles today. We had originally set out to ride 100 on Sunday, but ended coming up a bit short and I just didn't have anything left in me to crank out those last 8 miles. We'll try again this weekend.

That is seriously impressive. You rode in a weekend what I've put on my bike since the start of may.

Thanks! Sounds like it's going to be a scorcher this year.

More photos once we do the blog post but we had a terrific 3 day adventure with a group of friends - 12 riders, 105 miles, all on dirt and gravel. We had 2 fat bikes, full suspension mtb, front suspension mtb, 3 LHT's, 2 Rivendell's and a Salsa Fargo. Couldn't have ask for a better weather and can't wait to do it again next year.
