61.52 mi in 04:07:33 hours at 14.91 mi/h on Cannondale Carbon Synapse Feminine 4 Rival. [Cycling] Spring Tune-Up Friday
We left in a misty drizzle this morning, which evolved into a steady drizzle. I had to keep the jacket on all day long, and I was wishing I had worn knickers instead of shorts. We had a new route this year, and it was very nice. We still went to Eatonton, but we didn't go to Rock Eagle. Stopped on the side of the road to watch a cow that may or may not have given birth either right before or right after we stopped. Quote of the day: "Not that one, the one that came out of the BACK end."

8.69 mi in 00:41:39 hours at 12.52 mi/h on Cannondale Carbon Synapse Feminine 4 Rival. [Cycling] I had to ride to the visitors' center to register, and I wanted to tool around some more. This was all I could manage without my cycling shoes, though. Note to self: put extra pair of cycling shoes in RV.
62.93 mi in 04:02:39 hours at 15.56 mi/h on Cannondale Carbon Synapse Feminine 4 Rival. [Cycling] I did this ride mainly because I knew the t-shirt would be awesome. And then it was ORANGE! Arrrrgggghhhh!!! The course was awesome, though, just as much fun as I remember it being in 2006. It isn't often I can say I rode my bike in two different states on the same day.
45.74 mi in 03:09:13 hours at 14.50 mi/h on Cannondale Carbon Synapse Feminine 4 Rival. [Cycling] Wanted to get some miles in, but didn't want to get too far from home. (No, I don't know why either. Maybe in case I changed my mind?) Riding loops fulfilled both goals. Gorgeous day, perfect weather. Stopped at the same little church to rest in the shade, and I found a water spigot around back to refill my water bottle. Is that considered stealing? From a CHURCH?
25.45 mi in 01:44:28 hours at 14.62 mi/h on Cannondale Carbon Synapse Feminine 4 Rival. [Cycling] Added an additional loop to one of my standard routes home. The railroad crossing I usually use was closed...so I just rode around the barricades. Thank goodness it was already paved, or I would have had to CARRY my bike across.
