back in the saddle


well its been about 3 weeks since i last rode the bike, thanks to a much-needed vacation in michigan! i met two friends down in ponte vedra around 8am, and headed down a1a. we encountered some rolling hills, periods of shade, and many, many cyclists. it's so refreshing to see bicycles outnumbering motorized vehicles! the ride itself was great; very challenging for me and a walk in the park for our leader :-) after 2 tough cycling classes this week, i was feeling a bit under-powered and lacking in energy. we ended up completing 16 miles, a small amount but a nice good stretch for me to get back into gear. planning to ride again tomorrow, so i am not too worried about the low mileage. definitely going to pick up some energy gel for tomorrow!
time = 1:06:55
distance = 16.25 miles
avg speed = 14.58 mph
