| Big Falls |
Today's ride was really good, just over 30 miles, main roads and back roads. Took a break at big falls, and came back on East Hill Rd for the first time. I had my fastest mile (3'20"), and two consecutive miles under four minutes. Came back over Vance Hill. Slow going but I didn't stop until I got to the top. First time for that, too (although it was the backside, which isn't as steep). Felt really good about this long ride. On my way back, though, I was almost to Newport Center when I heard a flurry of sound behind me. I looked and saw a big fat rottweiler as it caught up to me. He only barked once, and seemed satisfied that I wasn't stopping, so he gave up. I may have surprised him when I talked to him, too. I wish everyone would tie up their dogs - this is the third time this summer I've been chased. This one was the closest, though not the scariest (that was the dogs on Nelson Hill that I never saw....)
