Overnighter

My friend, Will, and I took a short out-and-back overnighter this weekend. We biked a beautiful, 40 mile section of the Atlantic Coast route; the section we biked followed along the Delaware River in NJ and PA.

Some things I learned on the trip: I love stopping for coffee and pastries in the middle of the day when it's chilly out, I need a way to keep snacks handy to munch and ride, headwinds really slow you down, even going downhill, chocolate GU smothered on a banana is delightful, and trying to keep up with a cyclist with quads bigger than my head is extremely difficult.

Here's my action shot that Will snapped (I was too lazy to take any, myself):
