Short ride

I returned from Ren's today on bicycle: 7 miles; average speed 8+mph; top speed 18?mph. Nice to know I don't need gasoline to get around ALL the time! Triathlon happening at the other end of The Woodlands...I went West, they were in the East. Nice 84 degree day, somewhat muggy. Stopped at the French bakery for a croissant and café au lait on the way home...thought of C and his breakfast club. I suppose I should have gone to the Caffe de Fiore, which is Mexican, since it is Cinco de Mayo...another American holiday based on another culture...

Bicycle

I have been out on the bicycle nearly every Tuesday that it hasn't rained since the beginning of September.

We meet at a shopping center, where I leave my car. Others ride to the gathering. Then we ride the trails for an hour or two, then we stop for coffee for an hour. I'd like to say that I am getting to know The Woodlands, but some of the trails go off behind houses, and I have no sense of where we are at those times.

MapMyRide does not always pick up my route, but I am just getting used to it, so I probably am not pushing the right buttons!

Today, I also rode home from the coffee klatch...which means the car is still at the shopping center.

I rode 20 miles today, all told.
