22nd ride

Happily, I was able to ride to work this morning, in cool, crisp, bright spring sunshine. And then after work, in order to make my goal of riding at least an hour a day, I lengthened my route (still in nice riding weather), going down State St./Rd. to Textile, turning west and going over to Lohr, and coming up home along the Lohr-Textile Greenway, that broad paved path which makes for a nice finishing reward. This gave me a total day's ride of 12.3 miles, which I did in 62 minutes.

The day contained two minor mishaps. This morning, when just starting out, after I had left our complex and turned right on Lohr Rd., my phone fell out of my shirt pocket - but I heard it clatter on the pavement, was able to stop safely and find it - undamaged! (Note to self -- carry it elsewhere in the future!) Then this afternoon, at some point unknown to me, some papers fell out of my shirt pocket, and I only discovered this after reaching home. But it was nothing irreplaceable.
