Some saddle time

Up at 5am today (ugh!) and spent over half an hour on the trainer and then stretching every which way. No lunchtime walk, but then after work I got out for a ride around the usual river loop, for 14.4 miles. Didn't ride this one "touring style", pushing a higher gear up the minor hills instead of shifting so often, and also pushing the pace to a 16.6 average speed. Maybe the dark clouds had something to do with it. That puts me at 783 miles for the season, plus either 50 or 62 this weekend, so 1000 is not out of reach by any means. Just gotta keep at it.
