It was warm! It was sunny! Happy days are here again! (Actually, a happy day is here again. There are no more warm, sunny days forecast in the immediate future.)
We had a good ride today. First, we rode up to the north end of Catawba Island.
I would love to tell you that this house was on East Cliff Road, but it wasn't. East Cliff Road was a couple of miles north - but should this place not have an honorary Cliff Road address?
Kerry decided to route us through the Catawba Island State Park but missed the part about the route being a dirt road with a barricade at the end. Luckily the barricade was just a length of chain across the trail - I just lifted it up and Kerry rolled the bike underneath.
Some people working in their yard across the street called this structure a "folly". Some developer wanted to pretend it was the ruins of an old lakefront building, but it's phony. We saw another one later that looked like the same thing.
The final ten miles of the ride were into a brisk headwind, but not as strong as the one from two days ago. We'll see what tomorrow brings - likely chilly and wet.
Today's ride: 37 miles (60 km) Total: 134 miles (216 km)
