First ride of the season

I'm a little late, but, hey, with 5 kids..... what do you expect?

I managed 30 decent mile, no records set - wind in my face going up the hills made for slow going. My butt and back were sore, but hopefully this is the start of something I can do enough to get over that quickly.

Way to go, Michael! In how much time did you complete your 30-mile ride?

Just under two hours. The ride out is mostly uphill and was into the wind; so just over an hour and less so coming back. It's a trail that runs through several towns with stops, so not all out. I ended last season at 17.39 mph average for the 40-mile loop, but being the first ride seems a tad over 15mph.
