1) I rode my age plus a bit today

2) I went out to the area near the airport - the only area of town I hadn't yet made it to. You know, I think they may call that area the Highlands for a reason. Oh, but there was one place where the whole world just opened up in front of me. {happy sigh} I'm going up there again.

I saw at least 7 blue herons fishing, had a good conversation with a stranger regarding hex wrenches and other things, and picked up a bike bell/compass for DH.

Average speed was abysmal, but my smiles/mile ratio was off the charts in the other direction.

All in all a darn good ride.
