If they only knew....

I went out shopping today. Picked up 40 pounds of chicken feed, then at another store, a gallon of ice cream and a few other things

As I was leaving, a portly fellow commented that my ice cream might melt, then inquired how far I had to go to which I casually replied about ten miles.

He then commented "It's amazing you can still do it!".

I suppose my beard makes me look a little older than I am I will admit that today was a bit short, only about 20 miles RT.

I just wonder what the guy would have thought if he knew what the longer commuting days were like. Riding halfway across the state? 100 miles? 200 miles? MUCH heavier loads?
