Lunch: 8.3 miles, averaged 10:14. HR 133.

Second Thursday Night Dirt ride of the year tonight. Need it.

PM: 37.2 mile ride. HR 142.

Good ride. Started out slow, got moving, then hung back fro some stragglers, one guy was nnew and didn't want him to feel like people were leaving him hanging and not wanting to come out again. It was much cooler than forcasted/expected, but very comfortable. Gravel was nicely packed in places, but very loose rocks on the top and VERY dusty. The few cars we encountered were driving insanely fast and recklessly. Usually you get one or so every few rides, but people were nuts tonight. Enjoyed the ride. Hope rides will start to be more consistent. Still tough with the rain as people won't ride in the rain generally.

Thanks. My training the first 6-8 weeks of this year was a lot more impressive, but such is life. Plodding along and hoping to turn a corner. Nice to have you back on the blog and being consistent.
