Here it is. The first annual Birthday Ride. Inspired by Seth’s “Solo Century”. As you can see I found a link going back to 2005, so he’s been doing this a while… and his birthday is in September. Anyway, I’ll probably finish up the last 7 miles to complete a half century, but I liked the symmetry of riding one mile for each year.

I rode 27 miles last Sunday and only had very minor soreness in my calves. I’m not used to riding these distances in January. No matter. A nice flat spin with biking friends will be a great way to spend a chunk of the day.

If you’re in the area, c’mon! I’m riding in anything short of a blizzard. Everyone else is excused in the case of inclement weather.

Thanks to my riding buddy Jenni for getting this together for me. A lovely gift!
