35 Miles

I just got back from 35 miles of bike riding. I rode from my house all the way to the Lake County Forest Preserve. We rode there on this past family bike ride, of which I posted pictures. This ride is lots of fun, and it's also a good training ride. I rode harder than I've ever ridden in my entire life, which was really fun! When you enter into the forest preserve there's lot's of hills, and I was just flying down them! I pushed myself a little too hard, because at the last mile or two my right leg muscles started locking up on me, which is excruciatingly painful! So I hopped off the bike and walked home. All in all though, it was a great ride! Hopefully now I'll be in better shape for Saturday's ride.
