Back on My Bike

After more than a month, since labor day, in fact, I got back on my bike for a serious ride. I don't count the aborted ride in mid-September. Despite the long layoff, I managed a respectable 40 mile ride out to Fort Washington State Park. I intended only to ride for two hours in order in order to make it back to town with time to take care of some business, namely spend a few extra hours at work. But, equipment problems delayed my start a half-hour. More importantly, I had fantastic weather for the ride, though I could have used a sweatshirt. Recognizing that I had but a few days left in the year to ride, I pressed further than my original plan, riding for about four hours total.
