Had a GREAT ride last night!

I am still buzzed from my ride last night. :banana: West of Boston, it was in the 70's, the wind died down (lakes were like a mirror), and I felt great. Did a hilly route that took me west to the Purgatory Chasm area, and ended up with 63 miles w/ 4000+ ft climbing.

I was wondering if these 56-year-old legs were up for this stuff anymore, but after a night like last night, I'm revived. This was definitely one of those defining rides that reminds one why we do this to ourselves.

Things seen along the way:
- a mailbox with the name "Downer" on it
- a political sign for someone named Fattman

Thoughts along the way included getting another bike to do rides like D2R2.... ;)

Hope you all had a great ride yesterday.

I managed to get out on the tandem for a couple of hours after work. Lots and lots of rides going in every direction, guess everybody got the same idea - something about looking out the window all day at work...

Hey there are plenty of those days ahead for your "ole legs" take it from this 65 yr old cyclist. Did a ride like yours awhile back that made me realize I could use an update so I looked around I got a deal on a 2007 Coeur d'Acier frame from another forumite that I'm in the process of building up (pics to come when complete) for those nice long road trips

Here is a shot from one of those special rides on my Della Santa....
