le velo = the bike

Today is a TDF rest day, same for me. I rode 145 miles last week, they rode about the same each day.

Is there any scenery in the world that rivals France for a bike tour? Just spectacular.

Ride on!


Would love to be able to take one ride through the Lavendar fields, the smell permeating the air.  The hills, I can pass on those.


So for the recent 145 mile week, how many rides and how many miles per ride.


I need to start getting some longer distances.  Been having too much fun exploring off-road on the mountain bike -- however, we reached 38 mph on mtb yesterday, downhill on asphalt and it felt more exhilirating than on road bike or maybe just surprising that it would go that fast with squishy tires and lots of frontal area.
   ;D  Guess those Aero spokes really work   ;D
