32 miles on a gorgeous late summer evening. Twas a 24 mile club ride and 8 to and from the start. I've just returned to club riding - it was only my 3rd this year - and I can hardly describe how happy it makes me. It was an urban ride with a very social group that mostly stays together, but on stretches where speed is possible, there are lots of friendly sprints. I rode much harder than I should have given my afflicted hips, but I couldn't resist.
