14 miles at 15.4 mph, 642 feet of climbing.

Took my first shot riding up the hill on Poor Farm Road, with the 11% finish - I photographed it from the top earlier this year but had only ever ridden down it..... made it without stopping, but barely.  

I know they're not all going to be great rides but I did not feel strong this morning.  Gonna blame it on lack of sleep.   Actually, given how I felt, my avg speed was a pleasant surprise.

I suppose this morning the proper perspective is that any ride with two intact collarbones is a good one.
