Rain, rain, go away. Today it did. With that, I headed to the hills to do some "real" riding. Well, that's what it's called here but I kept the speed real low to test the limits of my abilities without ending up at the bottom of some narrow valley. So low was my speed that a friendly biker passed me, turned around, passed me on the other side offering a thumbs up, turned around again and caught up to me. We pulled over. He wanted to be sure I was OK because I wasn't approaching the speed of light like most everyone else on these roads. I explained that this was my very first time, I valued my life, we talked shop for a bit, and then exchanged some contact information. Nice guy. Anyway, it was fun.
