49th outdoor ride of 2021 - Tuesday, May 18, 2021

2021 mileage: 2808.1

What a magnificent, quintessential spring morning! When I left at 7:55 it was mostly sunny and 54°—and the few scattered clouds remained throughout the morning, as it rose to 74° during my 3:32 ride (a 31.7-mile round trip to Matthei).

On the way home, I took the route through Gallup Park, and from the Gallup Park Pathway (before I actually reached the park itself) I took this picture of where U.S. 23  crosses the Huron River.



Also, I believe that today was my first-ever ride to Matthei with an average speed of at least 9 miles per hour. I didn't know if I could make it; I was at 9.4 at the halfway turnaround point, and it kept dropping throughout the second half of the ride. But I managed to hang on!
