In preparation for the fundraiser I'm riding tomorrow for Dawn Farms (the Ride for Recovery), I went out this morning at 9:30 and rode consecutive round trips to Marsh Park, completing the 18 miles in a relatively slow time of 2:04. Tomorrow will be a sterner test, however, as I've chosen to ride the 25-mile route. (Other options are a 40-mile ride, and a Metric Century, or 100 kilometers, which is a little over 62 miles).
Today's conditions are gorgeous—brilliant sunshine that was 43° when I began, and had climbed to 53° by the end. And a notable feature of today's ride was that it put me over 700 miles for the year—a plateau I didn't reach last year until late July.
