I signed up for a local ride on a paved railroad right of way, it's 46 miles long. I signed up for 14 miles, so I rode 8 miles the other day to make sure I can make it the 7 miles each way. Took yesterday off to rest, can't wait to get back out today. The trail ride should be something, last year 1144 riders signed up.
