| Road ride - farm tour - I counted 3 active dairy farms, one herb farm, one sheep farm, two vegetable/ornamental farms. Long live local ag. The ride was a feast for the sense of smell with the odor of manure/sileage alternating with roadside honeysuckle. |

| |
| Modified sprint A at Crandall. Tree that #4 was tied to is gone. Ball fields in use by legions of kids so 3 to 4 and 6 to 7 had to be modified some. Tried out the active ankle again with more success. I'll wear it again at Paugussett tomorrow. |

| |
| Really fine day at Crandall Park. First meet on the map. Quite a few did both sprints and the green course. Terrain and facilities got an A+. Map is a work in progress, but worked well for almost everyone. |

| Rode from Bolton Motors to Birch Mtn. Rd. to Coups Sawmill Rd. to Hebron Ave. to Villa Louisa to Birch Mtn. to Route 85 and back to Bolton Motors. First ride outside since last fall. Really shaky on the rocky downhills on Coups Sawmill. Two hours was about twice what I should have done. |
