I made it. I did 6 miles today. That is my personal record so far. I went to the bike trail that is 20? 25? miles from here? I really have no idea... my navigator took me on a wild goose chase that took over an hour and went about 50 miles... :-(
I almost gave up, but I finally got there and it was too late to turn back. The trail is beautiful - it is about 10-12 feet wide, paved, and very gently rolling. The whole thing is 10 miles, I did three miles up and three miles back. There were a few bikers on the trail, but in the hour I was there, I think I saw 10 or 12 people the whole time. It is a "rails to trails" thing, and it goes right through the middle of two bodies of water at one point... lots of beautiful wildlife, etc. I found my way back home, and I think it took about 1/2 an hour. I am planning to go there again soon. I am almost 1/3 of the way to my first century. :-)
