4th of July

I expected to get in a couple of rides over the 4th weekend but unfortunately only got in one. On Friday the 4th we went to Mattapoisett for the Mattapoisett Road Race. Annie ran while Jordan and I cheered her on. Each time she came by us Jordan would light up and start laughing. I am sure that gave Annie a little extra motivation. After the race we headed for the beach. It wasn't a perfect beach day but a great time with great friends. Jordan loved the water. During low tide there is a large area that she could crawl around in and splash. I finally had to take the little shiverer out (kicking and screaming) and get her into some warm dry clothes. We ended up staying through dinner so when we got home it was dark.

Sunday I was able to get out for a ride. I wanted to try to duplicate the first day of the PMC so I headed to Harvard for some hills and then circled around Stow Sudbury Wayland etc. The ride was uneventful but it was a perfect day. I ended up going 60 miles and averaging 16.5mph. Hopefully this weekend I can get a ride in with some other people. It is kinda boring riding for 4 hours alone.
