Wednesday's night ride way short and quick. Seems it is getting darker earlier and the blue skies have been replaced with clouds. Because of this, only Krik and Andy joined us on our ride tonight.

The entire ride was just 22 miles long and we averaged just over 17 miles per hour. On a different note, I added a quote from John F. Kennedy today. It speaks well of how I felt today after the ride.
