Ride Description:

This was a nice day off before Thanksgiving and even better to sleep in a little later to catch a temperature that allowed me to wear summer cycling gear. I like those days where I have to dive into my gear bag and find the sunblock. Not a cloud noticed and temps ranging into the 60's made this a pretty awesome day out on the road.

This was a low stress ride as I hope to get in several consecutive days of cycling. I had some muscular soreness through my hips and hamstrings, but they seemed to loosen up toward the end of the ride.
