a nice morning ride
Jun. 18th, 2006 09:04 amBefore it gets too hot (and the World Cup matches start!)
The usual local ride on the CCT, 5.7 miles. I feel awful that it's been two whole weeks since I rode last. Bad me! Poor Rupert!
A ncie morning, hough already very warm. I saw quite a few squirrels, a male and a femal cardinal, a robin, and a mocking bird, and heard and saw a number of birds that I couldn't identify right of (just didn't get a good look--could have been more of the above). A few people up and walking dogs; one group of late-middle-aged men who had the look of doign somethign because they had told each other they would, not because they wanted to, and a mixed group of younger people, who seemed to barely even notice thy were running. Oh, and there'a a policeman with a radr gun at my park, checking traffic on Prosperity Avenue, in case anyone is going that way this morning. :-)
Hopefully I'll have some time today to post about last weekend, but I have some chores that really HAVE to get done. (I only just unpacked from my trip this morning...)

I'm sure Rupert will forgive you....eventually. ;-)
I thought about riding the Accotink Trail today, but the PPTC had a ride from Rockville to Poolesville that looked interesting. Upper Mo Co is nice and rolling, but the middle part around Potomac is very hilly. By 11:00 the heat was getting to me.
