I did my Sunday Bike Ride... it turned out to be a beautiful day... I was hedging at first I didn't want to go because the temperature was in the 50's when I got home... but by 9am it was pretty close to 60° and the sun was shining... if the sun is shining 55° feels like it's in the 60's.... so I put my bike into the back of my car and drove down to the parkway.
They don't close the parkway to traffic until 10AM and that's a little late for me to start a ride, so I got down there about 9:30 and rode my bike up to White Plains along the streets and by the time I got up there they were just about to close it down... I had to wait through a couple of short speeches and the annual ribbon cutting and the photo ops for the county executive, but about 10 minutes after 10, we were off...
Total distance was 13.88 miles and I have a new speed record for this year... 14.6 mph... It's amazing how much faster you ride when there's other people riding... as fast as I was today, I still couldn't catch up with her, LOL.
