Just What I Needed

A couple of good friends, weather on the cool side, (other than that it was perfect), long miles, bright sun, no wind...recipe for a good ride.
Haven't been down to East Union for many months and it felt great to get there today. "There" may actually be kind of a strong word...not a whole lot around, which was just what I was looking for. A couple of climbs, one that was long rising about 700 feet over a couple of miles plus. Amy and Steven were definitely up to the climbs. Rollers followed. Mother Nature still acting like it's winter, I figure I can still ride like it's winter, so I didn't beat myself up, but 80 miles is 80 miles.
Very nice ride today. Even though April has been the $&*!s for weather I'm still getting in some good rides. Thanks a lot Amy and Steven. 77/18.2
