With Lori out of town for Christmas, I had a chance to ride the Saturday morning breakfast ride into Annapolis.  I slept in.  I got to the start at 7:30, and soon seven of us made our way south on the trail at a much more leisurely pace than I’m accustomed.  A couple of newer riders helped hold the pace down.  Clint and his family passed us on the Naval Academy Bridge, headed for Hard Bean and when we arrived, saw another group that had ridden at 6:00 finishing their breakfast.  Mike B and Bryan N lingered long enough to accompany Randy R and I back up the trail.  It was a nice ride.

I do have to say … riding the bike in daylight makes me notice how dirty the bike is.  I’ll have to clean it up some before Monday’s 200k.
