Adjusted rear brakes on my bike before riding today. They actually work now! 97 degrees and sunny. Rode out to Hamilton Station on the W&OD. When I wasn't in the shade it was like biking in an oven. Rode around Paeonian Springs a little on the return trip and then stopped at the little grocery there to buy Gatorade. They didn't have any, so I got that Vitamin Water stuff that Renfield drinks instead...

75 degrees and sunny. Far too nice a day to spend inside working on the Anthrocon conbook (and I can do that later this evening). I rode out to Milepost 38 , then rode back via Dry Mill Road, which...Milepost 38 on the W&OD Trail, looking toward Clark's Gap.

Beautiful 73 degrees and sunny. rigelkitty has given me a list of chores to do while I'm not deployed, one of which was to bring our plastic bags to the supermarket to be recycled, so I killed...pony.

Nice day for it. 70-something degrees and sunny. Warm. T-shirt and shorts. Nice. Rode eastbound on the W&OD out to Herndon. Stopped at Great Harvest Bread Company again to pick up a loaf of X-treme Cinnamon...and a pickup truck parked out front, so I didn't explore further. RideTime: 2:14:12 AvgSpeed: 13.19 MPH MaxSpeed: 33.2 MPH Dist/Day: 29.50 Miles YTD     : 270.37 Miles

It was a little cool today, so I brought my disintegrating plaid shirt along with me for today's ride out to Milepost 38... and then further out to Hamilton (because I had to pee). The porta-potty there...and squirrels. Abandoned house, Hamilton, VA RideTime: 1:44:30 AvgSpeed: 11.99 MPH MaxSpeed: 31.8 MPH Dist/Day: 20.89 Miles YTD     : 122.31 Miles
