New 'old' glasses

It has been a while since I have gotten a ride in. After the nice hot weather it turned cold and wet again, and then over the weekend chores called. But today I got 46 miles in.

Sun
72
Wind 10-12
7-Mile Road, 46 miles

It felt good to be back out there riding and soaking up some sunshine. I had to squeeze it in between some yard work today as well. 


Talked to Matthew Busche's dad Craig who stopped by on his way out on a training ride. I was cutting grass so he pulled over and we had a chat. He sure is proud of Matthew's accomplishment in his second year as a pro...as he should be!


We plan to ride together soon, when he needs an easy spin day rather than his  usual riding, which is much faster and harder than my pace.


Looks like the Oak Leaf is going to go UNDER Bluemound, where it is all torn up right now. But it sure looks like the path is going to be moved a bit. Fine with me...one less busy intersection to cross in the city.

First ride with my new old riding glasses too. I found a pair of Bolle Vigilante frames with my Rx insert still usable with the frame. Paired the old insert up with the new frame and shaded lens and it's like I have new riding glasses!

Season Miles: 965
