Back from Spring Break

Back from Spring Break, and I ate practically everything in sight the last week and a half.  I got one ride in, in the hills of Northern Georgia on Thursday, and then headed back to Nashville on Friday and got a quick ride in late that afternoon.  And then I headed out for a cold 34 miles today.  I thought spring was here???

So it's time to turn the dial up a little bit.  Today is 3/23/14 and the first day of the Natchez trip as been moved a little bit to better fit into my and more importantly, my wife's, schedule, as she is the sag wagon. We are now heading out on Saturday, June 7th.  I am going to ride the first day, Friday 6/6, from the house and she is going to pick me up at the end of the day, a 64 mile day.  We will head back home and spend the night at our house, so as to not spend money on a hotel / B&B that night.  The next day we will drive to the end of the prior day and I will begin riding again. This driving back to the previous day's ending spot will be repeated each day, as most of the B&B's are several miles from the Trace.

So a quick check in on my mileage.  I have now ridden 569.32 miles so far in 2014.  I am feeling pretty good about my mileage so far, but need to start to string together several rides of multiple days in a row.  It should be a lot easier to do so with the time change and the supposed arrival of spring.  It will be a lot nicer riding in 70 degree weather.
