| Des Plaines Trail from Russel Road to past Lincolnshire 28.5 miles one way. 1:54 to the turn around and 2:06 back, maybe some head winds.
The weather was perfect!! I wanted a long ride but did not to pay $25 for an organized century or did I want to get up that early either. Watching the Olympics late last night was awesome. |

| Dekalb 10K, A CARA Circut race. This had loads of comp, and this was my first road race in my new 55-59 age group. 2nd place and about 5th or 6th in my CARA age group. It was so humid you could cut it with a knife, but the temps were only 75 or so. I really felt pretty good for not running 6 miles much. Legs and heel were no problem. |

| Day 2 of retirement.... Not bored yet :)
I met Dave B to ride an hour with him and I was pretty tired on the way home. I rode my 7.7 FX hybrid. The odometer finally reads right due to getting it higher on th fork so it can read the wireless. |

| I did not really attempt to go super hard and thoughts about 1 biker killed and one injured in Kenosha county in a hit and run always brings you down and more paranoid about cars. I think I will have to go to more trails and less road. I did avg 18.1 mph. |
