Week #31 - 578 miles
July - 2377 miles
Well July turned out to be a big month - actually my biggest month ever! Training for the Long Voyage has been going well. Yep, only 19 more days until we take off at 5pm. Hopefully it will be dry, since we have lots of MMRs to deal with.
Saturday we tried to recon the first half of the course. It was raining when we started and the roads were really soft and slow. The first few MMRs we didn't even attempt because they were too muddy. Once the rain stopped, it dried out fairly fast. The ride was still 200 miles and covered a good bit of the course. I know that I have properly trained but so many things can happen in 24 hours of riding. Not going out too fast and riding within oneself is the key.
It will be good to see everyone again and catch up. This next week will be about recovering and resting. It should be fun to ride again out in western Nebraska.
