my longish term goals are quite a bit simpler.
when I started riding in june, there is a popular submarine sandwhich shop that is about 20 miles from my house, the goal ride is there for lunch and back. hopefully the weather will cooperate to do it on sunday.
There is a long bike path by my house, it's an old rail road, that was pulled up and crushed lime stone was layed down (this was several years ago) and the entire loop would be about 90 miles (roughly) the path is called the prarie path. My goal is to do the prarie path tour. basically it's a 90 mile loop.
