Gettin' In the Base Miles

Today I headed over to ILRA to do a road ride there and at Kensington. I ended up riding the road bike to Kensington and riding the road there, then turning around to do the hills again and back to ILRA. Then I road a little over two laps at ILRA and got in a total of 40.5 miles. I road 1.5 hrs in my zone two and the rest in zone 1, which made for a good sustained ride. I averaged 18.8mph and finished about the time the sun went down. I will be doing this ride again tommorrow but maybe more miles and a little slower since I will be riding with others. So far, I have 135 miles in this year...AND its JANUARY!!!
