i hit the road at 4:35 this morning. it was a beautiful, calm, 30 degree morning. i couldn't have dreamed up a better morning to get my mileage-to-go down under 500 miles.
i rode out to anson road and turned around, thinking i wouldn't have time for more than 26 miles, but as i got closer and closer to home, i realized i had plenty of time for a few extra miles, so at two miles out i flipped around and headed away from town again.
when i u-turned a mile later to head west toward home, i made a momentous decision: my children were going to eat cereal for breakfast. i had planned to make waffles, but the weather was so wonderful that i decided to take full advantage of it. i rode almost nine miles more than i originally thought i could and ended up dipping under the 500 mile barrier before breakfast.
since i had my goal for the day in hand already, the miles i got after breakfast were freebies! i love free stuff! i got eight miles in, showered and shaved and now i'm ready to take on the day at work.
have a great day my friends! (43.54 miles @ 15.2mph)
