Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Mini BF NIL Chapter Ride

And I do mean "mini". Kenal0 and I finally got together for a ride today. We only live about 3 miles from each other, but it has taken all summer to get out together.

We met up for a nice 37 mile ride at a couple ticks over 16 miles per hour. Rode a different route than I usually ride and between that and having some company, it turned out to be a nice ride. Ken let me ride his wheel for some nice stretches so I could make sure my knee would hold out through the ride.

I appreciated the pace and feel good after the ride. Hope to be able to build things up over the next month to ride the North Shore Century.

Thanks again Kenal0 and I look forward to a more extensive NIL chapter ride with the rest of the group.

Nice. After four straight days for 100 miles on new bike it looks like I will not be getting out today. I look forward to meeting up with everyone and riding soon. Later.
