50.8 miles

I biked 50.8 miles this morning. I was only planning on 25 miles so I just had one water bottle. Bad idea. I met up with a guy I had biked with before and a girl he works with. She hadd one of those two first names first names. Something Ann. Not beth though. I did 23 miles with them and I was feeling good so after they left i went on my own. I was cruising about 18 miles an hour out no problem. Then at the 37 mile mark it just hit me. I turned around and it felt like the wind was blowing in my face at 20 mph. I could hardly maintain 14 mph.

So Stopped at a random all white church. Everything was white. They even had a graveyard in the back. Churches don't have those anymore. I wonder why that changed. I guess people don't want to think about death first thing every Sunday morning anymore. Anyhow, they had a water spicket that I took full advantage of. They also had a beautiful maple tree throwing off some major shadeage so I laid under it for a while. It was really nice.

I was starving because I didn’t eat before I left. I passed by a small farmers market I decided to give it a shot. Biking in spandex isn’t too awkward anymore, but walking around a farmers market with a bunch of old people in my spandex still is.
