Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

slobbered on this ride all winter

I've wanted to do this ride for a while and finally went for it today. Last 15 or so miles were brutal, 10 of which were uphill in the wind and rain. but still liked it. I am so happy to be healthy during this magical time of year in this beautiful place.

I thought you actually meant slobbered. When I'm in the zone, I've been known to drool.

Location, please.

Or are you keeping it a secret?

Looks pretty dry, so I'd guess west of the Divide. That narrows it down a little.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
