Hopefully we can keep this going as a continuing thread. Post your mileage, stories, or whatever has to do with your ride for the day!
Thursday evening ride. Gina doesn't seem too happy about going out in the dark but heck, l want to ride! I was worried it would be cold and dark but 66 average temp. Actually pretty nice! 15 local miles around the hood. 1100 ft elevation gain and max speed of 32 MPH on the downhill. Sounds scary in the dark but the lights are brighter in reality than they look in the video so no need to be scared. Going up is a 3, 4 and 5% grade of 3 miles in length. I did it 2 and a half times so I get about 6 miles of gentle climbing on this ride.

Few stills from the video:
Hmm, my big nose is the only thing that caught some light! :lol:
.................and the cycling gods said, "let there be cycling lights!".
32 MPH down into the darkness!
