I want to ride in a 24 mile ride in 3 weeks? I have been doing 12 mile rides the last two weeks and bumped it up to 16 yesterday. I am actually not to sore other then some chaffing. I will get some stuff for that today.

The only part of me that is really sore is the part that fell on Sunday. I am kind of getting used to my new clip in shoes. I figured I may as well get used to them from the get go instead of trying to change somewhere down the road. I think that would be much harder.

I am really looking forward to doing the weekly ride one of the bike shops puts on. I just do not want to "hold up" the group by being slow. I did the first 4 laps yesterday (12.68 miles) in about an hour. The last lap took me a little longer as I was starting to get a tired. The rides from the bike shop are about 25-50 miles long.
