It does feel like the weekend.
DH and I did a 17.5 mile loop in a direction we rarely do. It's humid as h*ll, as it rained until about 9 AM. This ride has a good hill near the beginning, and we wondered why there were tons of riders coming down the hill. We soon found out why; we got caught in the town of Lincoln 4th of July parade. I wanted to stop and wait, but DH wanted to get out of there, so we rode along side, behind the floats and fire engines, dodging parade watchers and a few assorted other weird things. I got to practice my handling skills , though I was a little worried we might get stopped by the police.
Tons of cyclists out. Leaving soon to go to a BBQ, although the heat/humidity kind of took away my appetite.
