Took a 41.3 mile ride this morning through several suburbs West of Chicago. For anyone familiar with the area I hit a bit of the Illinois Prairie Path (Aurora branch), Fox River Trail, and the Great Western Path.
I only got into cycling about a month ago when I bought a 2011 Trek Kaitai, so this ride was by far the longest I have taken thus far. My legs held up great, I felt like I could go 10+ more miles when I got home. My hands are what failed first, got real tingly even with the Ergon GC3's so I think I need to get some gloves!
I get so jealous of all you guys who live in more "scenic" areas to ride in!
