around wellington

didn't have a lot of time to ride today due to extra work duties in wellington, so i just squeezed a few miles in over the lunch hour. nothing remarkable about them. i tried out some dirt roads just outside of town that i'd always been curious about. they go nowhere. that's what i had suspected. now i know. i hurried back and got back to work just on time. oh, and i got in a first attempt at the 'fastest mile' dirt challenge. came in at 3'24. the road i chose probably wasn't the best road to try to ride fast on - lots of loose gravel and some washboards - but it was the only available road so i took it. (15.32 miles @ 14.0mph)
