Almost missed a workout today. Would have been the first off day in almost two weeks. Wouldn't want to break the trend!! I decided to get on the bike after dinner, and DAMN I'm glad I did. Weather was perfect for an evening ride! Clear and 63º is just about the perfect biking conditions. I knew time was going to be short and I would only have about an hour, so I decided to push it and do the 20 mile loop using mostly the canal path. This route is pretty easy and mostly flat, so I knew I could fly. That and the fact that I was feeling pretty energetic resulted in a very quick ride. This is going to be my "speed workout" from now on. I managed to catch green lights for most of the road intersections, which made it very nice too! By far the best ride in a very long time. Lots of fun!!
