Took another day off last Wednesday for the November ride. I think it was the second time I was on a bike since the October century (I really need to get out more...). Nothing really exciting, just a beautiful day in the 60's with lots of sun and only a little wind. I spent most of the time on roads that are becoming familiar to me out to the east and north of Boulder. I did manage one route error for tradition's sake (my queue sheet was worng) so I ended up just over 105 miles for the day and finished as the daylight was fading fast around 4pm. It took just over 8 hours total time door to door. Same 82 Voyageur as last time but I put on a Brooks this time.

I'm really looking forward to the December ride. This challenge thing has been a great motivator for me and while I've enjoyed every ride so far it's time to do something different. I'm thinking either an all night ride, a road trip to somewhere warm, a ride to a Ft. Collins brewery for lunch or maybe a few thousand laps around the indoor track (probably can't afford that one...)

Edit....here's a couple of photos, twas a nice day.



And of course, the other reason for the ride.
