I wish. <g> However I'm planning bike vacation #2, heading back to Va Beach
to ride the flats. I'm hoping to really push it and do a minimum of 2hrs
per session and as the hip holds out, two sessions a day as often as
possible. I've been putting in the daily mileage for such a push, and
though still beginner level, I'm so far beyond where I thought I'd be a
year ago, it's hard to complain too much.
Been great riding here this week - several days where I was out there
during a light rain during which the sun came out. Magical - stuff like
this only happens crusing on a bike - it's obviously not the same in a
car. Even jogging speed isn't quite as nice.
At the end of the vacation I'm heading back to where I grew up (Tidewater
area), for another week of riding, and will be biking the old routes I did
as a high schooler, (where I delivered papers, rode to my lifeguard job at
a neighborhood pool, etc). The roads there are still pretty bike-friendly

Ah, wasn't even thinking about that, much, was just curious. So is the
model year on the bike somewhere or the instruction sheet, if you know?
Best,
