Sometimes one just needs to go for a bike ride. It’s made even better when one unexpectedly runs into friends and gets to ride with them. Today’s frustrations seem nicely alleviated by four hours and seventy miles of rail trails on the CX bike.
Just after starting out I happened across Mike Remsburg near 24 Mile, and he and I rode together to Richmond and back. Nearly done with that leg we happened across Bill Edgerton, and we all rode together for a bit before Mike and I split off west on 25 Mile back towards his car at Stoney Creek High School. After showing Mike the way I headed up to Lake Orion and back to my car at Onyx. Data for the ride can be seen here on Strava.
With little wind, partly cloudy skies, and 60°-70°F temps it was really great riding weather. It was a bit humid and my glasses kept fogging up after dark, but I was still able to see sufficiently.
Now to shower, eat a bit, and sleep.
