300 mile long weekend

Had some commitments this weekend, in Norwalk and in Toledo. So I decided to make a long weekend of it and take the bike on the first real ride of the season. Temps when I started was in the mid 80's. I was in my winter bike jacket and definitely hot by the time I got to Norwalk. By the time I went to Toledo, the temps were in the high 40's/low 50's - kinda cool with no chaps or neck balaclava and just my summer gloves. By Monday morning, the sun was out and temps were in the 50's - great riding weather

On the way back, I put about an hour under my belt before stopping for coffee. I decided if I was going to have coffee, I best get something to eat as well. So I stopped in Findlay for some traditional breakfast; coffee and ice water, eggs, sausage, grits, and biscuits and gravy. If that does not fill up your belly, nothing will!

By the end of the ride, only about 120 miles, my butt was killing me. Guess I need to toughen up my tush!!! 200 miles should be a no-brainer...
