A new milestone for me
Hello everyone. I have achieved well over 100 miles this week. This is a first for me,and it feels great. The heat has been intense here the last few days..in the upper 90's. But i got the rides done in the mornings. My average has been 22-27 miles per day. My new felt bike has enabled and encouraged me to ride longer and more often. I did a 42 mile ride last week. I think Im ready to try a fifty. I sure wish i discovered this when I was a younger man.No complaints....just enjoying the progress.

Im amazed at how much of the test is in the mind. When I over think how far fifty miles is,it becomes daunting. When I just get on the bike and start riding it becomes possible.
