Hello there, fellow Marylanders.

Well, after finding out that I was either seriously out of practice or severely dehydrated over the past couple of 60-mile bike rides (and either passing out or slowing way down), I just got back in from a very peaceful 71.5-mile ride to Salisbury, round trip from my home in Marion Station. I took it really slow (12mph on average) and hills are still giving me trouble, but it was really fun, so I don't mind those technicalities. =)

My behind's hating me for Salisbury's sidewalks, though. I seriously need a better saddle.

My goal at this point is to hopefully get myself back up to about 17mph, which is where I was last summer before I quit the necessary work commute.
