12.5 miles

Just took a moment to plot my ride today.  I meandered (well at a fast pace) through various nooks and crannies of my mom's neighborhood on the bike today.  There are some hills out there... both fun on the down and miserable on the up.  But I just kept pushing along.  Come to find out I covered over 12 miles in 64 minutes.  I want this pace to improve and I am sure it will come race day.
I also hope the hill situation will be different come race day. 

In other news - took the front wheel off the bike today to see how it fits in the car.  I dont want to drive all the way to FL with it on top of the car.  Imagine that - cyclist, bike shop owner neighbor did not steer me wrong.  It sure did fit.  As well as the step stool for putting it in the bike rack.  And with plenty of space for luggage.  Now that I know it works I think I will go back to using the rack. 

Where to ride tomorrow? 

No riding Sunday.  There will be even more crazy morning church traffic on the roads. 

Will be swimming the rest of the week as I will be on the road after that.  Silly me...
