117th ride

Last Friday afternoon, I encountered tire trouble during my long ride, and it eventually resulted in a flat (which I got repaired Saturday morning). I felt today I should "get right back on the horse that threw me" and ride the same ride—so I did. Although my time of 1:27 for the 15.5 mile ride was significantly better than last week's 1:56, it was not as good as I had hoped for—but I'm still glad I did it. That gave me a daily total of 17.7 miles in 1 hour 39 minutes, and pushed me over a total of 1400 miles for 2013—since I got quite a late start this year, I'm wondering now if 3000 miles for the year is feasible. We'll see!
