Stormy Ride



Today I rode to Coventry.  Nice day with the sun out, so I decided to go up Coventry Station Road.  Big-ass hill.  The place in Coventry where I often take a break was flooded, but I found a place to relax with a cup of coffee.  Once I rode back up out of there and up the next hill I saw dark clouds coming over, but I thought I'd be okay.  Rode down the big hill at the end of the Glen Road and got chased by two dogs.  I was faster.  A little further and it started blowing and raining.  It got worse.  I put on my pants.  Deb called and convinced me to get picked up.  She met me at Vista's and I'm SO glad I didn't have to ride the rest of the way!

2015 First Ride

Went on my first ride of the year today.   Thought about going to Eagle Point but was worried about big hills on my first ride.  Still got some pretty good hills, going up to Sacred Heart.

Good start to 500 miles.
