Middle->Bairdford->Saxonburg

A fine day for a ride. Middle Road Extension is in fine shape, I tell you. Very easy to imagine you’re cruising along some cow path in Northern Belgium. Bairdford Road is less than pleasant between Bairdford and Saxonburg–huge potholes and no shoulder. Saxonburg was headwind-packed, as usual. Good training for Sunday, I suppose.

It’s also amazing what a new chain will do for you. It’s like I have a new bike.

Today begins what must now be an annual rite–Find a Ride to Mingo. My team mates, who apparently melt in the rain, are waffling on going out (hi guys!), meaning I will spend the next two days wheeling and dealing to find a ride. I could ride out, but I’m not exactly excited by the idea of riding 20+ miles to the park in the cold rain.
