Gavush: One of these days I'm going to do a loaded tour of the whole Natchez Trace... someday. 444 miles from end to end.
This morning, went out and did 5 miles, then 6 miles to meet a riding group, did another 22-ish with them, and rode home alone (after getting two flats! Blech!) finally clocked in at 38.4 miles. Had a great time besides the flats, and I feel great. I think I averaged around 13MPH, but did some extended 15-16 MPH pulls with the group.
I also found a killer deal on a
Sunlite saddle/pannier set for $18 (yes, that's right... $18) so I'm getting closer to commuting.
