The feel of the road



Five straight days of riding has given a good feel of where I am at for the STP. I logged over 200 miles in these five days. I will admit that today was a tough day of riding. The legs were heavy and tired. The 30 miles were not as easy as they should have been but I pushed through. I was trying to get an idea of how it will be in two weeks. This last week was another personal best for me. I rode more miles this last week than I have ever done before. I am hoping to beat that total again this week. I feel ready for the STP.

One of my most favorite things about watching the tour is the scenery: the buildings, the roads, the landscape. It just looks like home to me. There are so many memories of my time in Europe. It would be nice to ride a couple of days in Europe, namely Germany and France. Someday...
