vickie's loop in newark, delaware, was created by my sister-in-law based on a route she usually does with a few added miles to make the 20 miles i wanted today.
i started out following the map and then started improvising. i came back to the house at 31.49 miles and no one was there, so i went out again, reversing part of the route to see if climbing the hills would be better going the other way. it was, but i understand now why vickie avoids left turns here. it was kind of crazy trying to cross traffic.
enjoyed climbing beech hill twice. made up it all the way up without stopping both times, but it was painful. i'll take l'alpe d'anville over the hills around here anyday.
glad i'm here. it's 31 degrees and sunny. very little wind. back home in kansas it's 19 degrees with 25mph wind and snow. (43.55 miles @ 15.0mph)
