They're chip sealing almost all of the roads I normally ride on ... was entertaining the idea of going after the Strava July Fondo this weekend (though I may not be ready for it) and I'd created a 32 mile loop of those roads which I planned to ride twice. Not sure I want to ride over that much loose gravel.

Yeah ... I came across the first one yesterday morning, didn't think much of it, but they're doing so many of the rural roads right now, it's everywhere ... we'll see how compacted they get by Sunday.

I don't think I'm going to reach my goal, probably get close, but not going to have enough time to do it. Bad weather and all, I'm sick of it. On the bright side, I feel that I am getting stronger with every ride.

July 13 - 19.9 miles
July 14 - 19.9 miles
