May 21 Daily Ride Thread

WHew! 130 miels in two days... I'm over 100 for this weekend (and 168 for Fri-Sun) 'cause today was the Sangamon River Ride, 42 miles but the trip out & back added 46 more. Fortunately I had company on the way back 'cause we had a 14 mph cross/headwind (a 'bent fellow, though, so drafting didn't happen).
And... 130 miles on three separate rides means you were *not* riding with other people who had gone that far; they were tag-teaming you! Way to go (do you have your miles on bikejournal.com?)

Did 45 miles at the Arlington 500 with Fuji Girl. The weather was cool but it was sunny and a great day. A little windy going out but that just meant a good tail wind back. Fuji really enjoyed the hills we got to go up and down. Well, just the down bit. But she did great and got stronger and faster up them as the day went on. Had some Oberweis cookies n cream ice cream after. I'm ready for it to warm up again around here and stay that way for more than a few days at a time.

Alas, my bike has not made it back from its (mis)adventures in Peaslake yet. No point going to get it until my new helmet shows up. Was so bummed yesterday when the postie rang the doorbell and it was only a package of CDs for my flatmate.

Rode a very nice 32 mile course today by myself, as BF trashed his back yesterday. It was my first ride on my NEW SADDLE!!!! I love it!!! I can't believe that I rode 300+ miles on the stock WTB saddle that came with the bike... I'm convinced that WTB stands for" Weally, weally, tender bits" No more though. The weather was great, and the birds were all singing me on my merry way. Got home and the reward for dinner is crab louie and strawberry shortcake! yum!
