Last monday Darin and I rode 6 miles around the town and I made it up 3/4th of the way up our huge hill. getting better!..
yesterday though was picture perfect and we went up to newport to ride the trails there and up onto the rail trail to beebe plain. Starts off by the state office building all paved and wonderful path- up by prouty beach and campground and by the hospital before turning onto crushed gravel on the rail trail. We went by some GORGEOUS million dollar homes and all along the lake it was jsut stunning. Got to chase several butterflies that seemed to race me on the bike too:) lol
We went all the way to the STOP sign saying we were about to enter canada and turned around. On the way back we encountered a trail on the left and rode down into it to explore many mtn bike trails that wound its way through the woods. we did not want to get too lost so we just went 1.5 miles in and around in there. It was a nice break, from paved roads, crushed gravel to mtn biking:) yee haw!
On the way back we took pics in newport of the little lighthouse there and views from the foot bridge as it was SO beautiful out and the water was so clear!
we went a total of 14 miles- our longest ride yet! feeling a bit sore today but not bad. we will be doing more riding this week to get ourselves in better shape quicker instead of a ride a week it will be a ride every 2-3 days.
