Yeah, I'm a helluva nice guy... Seriously, I'm DYING to do the 33 miler, because I WANT TO SEE THE FARMLAND AND COVERED BRIDGES...HELLO!...it's the "COVERED BRIDGES RIDE"! But, if I don't think she can handle the 33, which I don't think she can- not on that bike over that terrain- she'd have to do the 20. And i REALLY don't want to go out to this beautiful covered bridges ride to do 20 flat rail-trail miles.

I would just go alone- a day to myslef- except she's traveling for work the ENTIRE weeks before AND after the ride, so that sat & sun are the only 2 days I will see her out of 14. And to "take one away"...

Nothing's ever easy...
