57th ride of 2019 - Friday, 7/12/2019
2019 mileage: 2491.7
Today I rode for the first time since my mishap on Tuesday. (After picking up speed on a downhill stretch, I failed to slow sufficiently when trying to negotiate a tricky S-shaped stretch of sidewalk, and rolled the trike, slamming my lower left back into the cement curb.) As it left me quite tender, I took an almost unprecedented two consecutive days off. (I'm feeling OK now to function, though I can sure tell I'm no longer 20 years old!)
Leaving at 7 a.m., (in extremely comfortable 56° cloudy conditions that rose to 66° by the time I was done) I did another round trip to Baker Rd., getting 20.0 miles in 2:20.
