Rode a ways out, stopped for lunch, and then half of us split off and came home rather than heading farther south into the forest. Still managed some 220 miles today, but DAYUM I'm still cold!!
It was 62 here, but I still wore long johns under my leather pants. Hippo hands for warm hands and the win. Coming down Lookout Mountain, I passed a red, or should I say, scarlet 2004 R1 going up. We passed on a blind corner, but in that tenth of a second I recognized the bike and rider. No other bike like it. We both nodded as we've passed each other before. Only bad thing is he doesn't wear a helmet. And he's very fast. I tried to catch up to him going uphill once, but couldn't.
