33rd ride - 6/9/15

This morning I got in a good ride (and doubtless sweated off a few calories, too, as I rode wearing a hoodie in 68° sunshine), though it was not quite as far as I thought it was. I thought I was exceeding 20 miles, which would have broken my record (so far) of 18.7. But instead, when I got home and measured it on the computer's pedometer, it came to 17.4 miles in an hour and 47 minutes.

I did three round trips to Woodland Drive today, rather than two as I have done on each of the two previous days. And it was a joy to see my friend Doris Granum, as I rode south along the Lohr-Textile Greenway, riding toward me and waving. As we drew near, she said, laughingly, "Finally—we meet!" We have talked about riding together on several occasions, but have never been able to mesh schedules. We both agreed, when we met later in the ride, that it was a great day to be out there!
