So today I rode 50 miles (all day) 48 of that being in the same ride, 2 of it just riding to the hospital. i now have a bike computer thing and it is pretty fun. that 50 miles took me 4 hours total, average speed being 12.5 mph. there was some knarly wind for a while today! what other fun stats can i give you? top speed was 31 mph and it was really warm (like 30 degrees C for a lot of it!). i don't think that my bike computer does cadence, though. i am still trying to figure it all out.

anyway, i like my bike computer, but i think i've decided that i need to do more 30-40 mile rides (consecutive days, too) because that 50 miles was pretty killer. now that i have stretched and gone to work i don't feel like i will be sore, but for a while i thought i was going to be hurting tomorrow.

anyway, for the ride me and my friend went to a little town called harmony, population 18. it was all closed down and stuff, so i took some pictures in the windows and outside. it's a really cute place.
there is so much nice weather and good bike places around here it is making me want to move back! i am pretty sure i am going to, because i don't know where else i would move, anyway! it isn't like moving back here would take me away from plans somewhere else.
