75 Ride

met the team out near the veloway for a 75 miler on saturday...the longhorn group (which is big) is tapering and there ride was three loops on south mopac...then call it a day...wow...i remember those rides...it seems like a long time ago...

we did two and a half loops then down escarpment to william cannon...southwest parkway...out to fitzhugh road just to 12 then back to southwest parkway...to 71 to bee caves finishing up on 360-mopac-southwest parkway back to the veloway...ended up about 78 miles...and felt really amazing...i rode alone (as usual) but did see the group out there...always nice to know (they average like 20 out there...there is no way i could keep up with that!) there are others out there riding....felt really good...got a little lost in my own head coming back on fitzhugh...but pulled it back together again for the rest of the ride...and was able to finish strong...and happy...i think it is important to end rides happy...

home to eat (a lot), ice my knee, study and rest...j and i made pizza for dinner and watched into the wild i totally recommend this movie...i thought it was really great...and beautiful and directed by sean penn
