the Way of the Turtle

30.4 Mile Ride Along the Mohawk Hudson Bike Path
Wednesday, September 9, 2009

Set out to do an easy ride on the bike path this evening... and ended up doing my longest ride yet this year, with a good portion both heading uphill (mostly gentle slopes, but still uphill) and at a pretty decent clip. What can I say... somewhere along the way I found out that for whatever reason tonight I had the fire in my belly and it was too good an evening to spend sitting indoors doing work. Gives me some hope that the Autumn Classic Duathlon in a little less than a month (the long course! no more short course for me if I can avoid it!) will go better than the spring short course did.

Though I do suspect I'll be feeling the effects on my legs tomorrow...
