Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

Managed a short ride before the rain started. Went to Murhy Oil and bought cigs and then to a fast food restaurant for burgers and fries.

It hit the mid 40's today and finally got to ride. All 5.5 miles. Had to take a planned route as there is still lots of snow on the ground that's melting and creating some nasty ice hazards. Oh yeah and sand/gravel everywhere. I still enjoyed the ride. Good thing bugs aren't out yet, or they would have been stuck in my teeth.

Wood pile is down enough that I got to sit on it, felt real good. :) Traveling along a Vermont country road, just meandering along at a loping pace. The smell of fresh air rushing up my nostrils, :) hair rustling in the breeze, ;) eyes watering as I realize I'm still in my shed. :( The door has five feet of snow blocking it. :(" title="" border="0"/> :(" title="" border="0"/>

Still painting on the house so don't get a lot of time to ride. Managed a short ride to Ace Hardware to buy another gallon of paint.
