Canceled today's training run and decided to ride in to Provincetown instead. The challenge was to go on the ocean side of the cape without hitting the highway at all, which turns out to be possible only if you take a lot of tiny, meandering, unpaved and unmarked roads. Bumping along through sinkholes, down sandy morasses, past lovely secluded kettle ponds. When I got lost this very hot woman at the "package store" by South Pamet clued me in. Not the most efficient route -- I found that on the way back. But a great ride. About 50-55 miles in ~4 hours and I was completely done in when I rolled home at 9:30. Slept well. |
