[RBW] Slightly Epic.
Modestly great, a minor success: I rode 40 miles today, the longest in one day since I did the Museum of Nat Hist organized 50 miler in September, 2004. Errands: first Mom to home to pick up Catie's coat; second to RS Watsons house to sell him something for a change; third to ex's office to drop off coat; fourth to Sunflower Market for groceries. The '03 with 72 gear. Beautiful day, 70F, somewhat humid at 26%, slight SSW wind, gently rolling -- from W Mesa down to river valley and up again toward the mountains, and back. Total time including stops 3:14:57 for an average, clock stopped of 12.29 mph (this includes shooting breeze with Ryan, shopping). The bike fit and felt perfectly; I felt energetic; the sky was clear, the women beautiful, the wine superbe and life was good. I should have brought a snack but did well enough with a bottle of weak tea with lots of honey. Replenished vital energies at Sunflower with a large handful of chocolate covered, cinnamon flavored, marshmallow bears. Of such very minor achievements are our lives made. -- - Patrick Moore, Albuquerque, NM For professional resumes, contact Patrick Moore, ACRW http://resumespecialties.com/index.html - A billion stars go spinning through the night Blazing high above your head; But in you is the Presence that will be When all the stars are dead.

Re: [RBW] Slightly Epic.
Very nice and epic. I've done 40 miles single speed, but never fixed. And your gear is considerably higher than mine. Too bad for the slow business, but at least the weather is nice. Eric Platt St. Paul, MN (where it was barely into the 40's today with a somewhat brisk NW wind. Enough so wished I had a jacket over the Rivendell wool jersey on my ride after work.)
