Saturday Afternoon Ride
After planting 45 bulbs with my daughter in our front yard, (and taking her to soccer practice in the middle of that), I found myself with some time before dinner to get a short bike ride in. So I geared up and headed out around 3:00 with no real planned route in mind. I headed up through Medway, where I ran into the Monsignor of the parish we go to walking from the rectory to the church. After chatting with him for a bit I headed north.
Cycle for Haylee and Route 126
Cycle for Haylee (CFH) Route Marker
As I headed north I came across the Cycle for Haylee (CFH) route markers spray painted on the road. I would have participated in this event if my schedule would have allowed. Since I had no plan I figured I would follow the arrows for a bit.
Rt 126
I was on Lovering headed west when I came to Rt 126. The space for the road was there, however the road wasn't. It was under some serious construction. The pavement was gone and it was a dirt/gravel road that only a Devoted Rally Cross Driver could appreciate. I wonder how the people who rode for the Charity event faired on this "road". I wasn't on a MTB or a CycloCross bike, and I didn't want to chew up my slick road tires, so I turned around.
Millis and Norfolk
I followed the CFH route markers for a while in the other direction and was in Millis when I diverged from the route. I had a nice leisurely ride back home through Millis and Norfolk. It was a good ride to sneak into a late Saturday afternoon.
It was Hot
Did I mention that it was hot? Mid-80's this Columbus Day Weekend. At least today it was.
