Another 20.5 miler today, but this time, it encompassed 4 towns instead of one. DH is working at home today, so we made the ride short, since he is supposed to be *working.*
This is one of my favorite rides and it was the first time I've done it this season. Part of it goes on a road that's designated a scenic bikeway, and it is. It also goes through an area that's closer to where I lived when I first moved back here, including the 4-H fairgrounds, where I took my kids to the fair about 2 months after we moved. They were 5 and 7, so it always makes me remember those good times. Of course, hardly any cars at 11:00 AM, and only one small group of guys passed us on Curve St. in Carlisle. They were polite, which still shocks me.
DH is still coughing and we went quite slow in the beginning (he let me me outpace him on the climbs), until the end, where it's flat before we get back to our neighborhood and he put the hurt on me. Glad we did that, though.
