I convinced Scott that he should come biking with us. 40 miles I promised. I made a wrong turn. Hills and steeper hills.
We stopped a few times. Most notably to refuel in Richmond, not at our usual coffe shop, but at the Country Store. Pat was on top of his game and we dragged Scott past his endurance point. He trekked on despite being past a reasonable long distance, and wearing a long sleve cotton shirt.
It was a late spring day in early spring, 73 degrees, balmy and beautiful. We traveled from Hallowell to So Gardiner, Litchfield, Richmond, Gardiner and then the rail trail. We ended up right around 50 miles and a little sore and tired, glad to have an early long ride.
