And got 55! I started around 9am, up at SR 52 and the suncoast parkway. I headed toward Alex who was headed to the SR 54 parking area. I met up with him around 9:45, and hit the trails. It was a gorgeous day, with the exception of it being 50F. I knew sooner than later that it would heat up, so I just had to deal with it being cold for a bit. We road up towards SR 52 and got about 3/4 the way when Alex had a blowout.
20 minutes later and we were back on our way...
My goal today was to log 50 miles - the furthest I would have ridden so far. I managed to get in 55, which ended up being SR52 to SR54, SR54 to SR52, SR52 back to SR 54, on the return trip I rode all the way to the end of Starkey park, back to the trail and back to the car. I did push up the pace a bit after I left Alex at the parking lot which ended up hurting my endurance around the 48 mile mark. Note to self, don't do that again!
