Biking (Ayer to Nashua Trail) 2:23:26 [2] 25.02 mi (5:44 / mi) +252m 5:34 / mi
shoes: Shimano Bike
Nashua River Rail Trail
Headed out of the house before J-J, but he stopped and helped my put my front tire on. The tab things ("lawyer tabs" according to J-J) make it a struggle for me to get the tire on.
More practice taking my own picture. Here I am at the start.
A large part of the trail was bordered by wetlands.
And, the sign entering Nashua, New Hampshire.
Me with the sign, more work needed on getting the arms stretched out far enough.
OK, I am giving this a level 2 today. It was pretty much dead flat, but the wind was strong going out, and it was even stronger coming back. I had in my mind that it was 18 miles each way, but I was so happy to get to the end of the dedicated trail at ~12.5 miles. I don't think I could have done any more than this. No surprise given the lack of exercise of late.
Back to J-J, showered, and headed back to Nashua/Hollis, NH to stay with Lex and Pete.
Thank you to J-J and Nancy for the very fine hospitality.
