I had planned on doing the Hipp ride this evening at 6:00. It's a big, fast group ride, and they do around 50 miles on Tuesdays.
I could feel myself starting to wimp out around lunch time. There's only one sure way to make absolutely certain you're locked into riding later on: call your friend Dan and ask him if he wants to go out for two hours or so at 5:30.
He did.
We ended up doing about 40 miles, and took a small dirt road near Micanopy that neither of us had ridden before. It was fairly wash-boarded for about a mile, but then spat us out onto the most beautiful one lane country road I've found yet for another two miles before hooking back up to CR329.
Once back on Williston Road, we hooked up with the end of the Team VetMed ride and hung with those guys for a bit. They seemed like a good group of people, and I'd never seen or met most of them before.
All in all, it ended up right at 40 miles, and just under two hours. I felt a little off, couldn't quite get in the groove, but I can feel my legs coming back to me. Just since Friday I'm feeling a whole lot better.
