(I knew that. I was just testing you.)

Got out for a good 24. I've been trying to dial it back and not push as hard and with the exception of a mile or two on this ride I managed that pretty well today.

Nice, Jeff! Glad your hand is healing, Ian. I got in 42 miles this morning. The goal was 50, but I dawdled this morning while waiting for my two potential riding partners to text me back. Since both wimped out (yes, JOHN), I ended up having a glorious ride on my own. Mike's right that the winds were a bit nasty, but not too bad, except the occasional bad gust coming off the ocean when I was in Palm Beach. While being blown about, I was actually getting spritzed by ocean water, despite the water being 50 to 100 yards away, depending on where I was, which was a new experience for me. Leaves were also attacking, flying off the trees and smacking my face in one section, which I've also never had before. That kinda freaked me out. All and all, I felt great. I could have done more, but had physical therapy at 11AM, so rode there and back, with a little lunch stop at Planet Juice on my way home. I'm really happy on how great I'm feeling on the bike since only a few weeks ago, I didn't think I could ride much anymore. I'm going for 60 tomorrow, just to see. I've got a metric century charity ride in two weeks, so I'd like to test things out now before I embarrass myself. My new thing is to ride the Gunnar on Saturdays then switch to the Calfee on Sundays. Between the weight difference and the Enves on the Calfee, I pick up a couple mphs, and feel impressive, however false. Mike, are you on your road bike at all anymore? Is Gail riding? I think it's time we all plan a little bike outing.

Donated for greater purpose.
