Friday afternoon I got a group email sent out by Chelsie giving the heads up about a 50 mile bike ride planned for Saturday morning. I knew I wasn’t up for 50 but I had more than 12 (the length of the last ride) in me. The plan was to stick with the group as far as I was comfortable & turn around short of 50. As it turns out the ride was myself, Harmony, Bo & Chelsie. Since it was just the four of us we made a route change that let us put in just as many miles as I was up for.
We drove up to Snohomish & hopped on our bikes from there. It was a beautiful morning with the temp in the low 70’s. We headed southeast to Monroe then south on 203 towards Duvall. Down 203 a bit we cut over two smaller roads with less traffic for a loop.
The whole ride was pretty much flat (Psychical Therapists orders for now) & totaled 30.71 beautiful sunny miles!!! The whole ride I felt great, no pain, no stiffness, or limitations. Getting off the bike I had some muscle soreness but thats to be expected after taking 4 months off. (As I write this I’m icing my quads)
After the ride it was off to the local pub for burgers and cold drinks.
The map attached shows the ride, our route’s in blue.
