Last Weekend

Amy and I did 55 miles on the Silver Comet in GA for her birthday.
The Silver Comet is a rail trail… A long one.
This ride was pretty cool… at first… The trail, at least in the direction we were going sloped just barely downhill on the way out, with an equivalent uphill on the way back. Although I don’t think it’s necessarily accurate to call it a hill!
We split it up and rode about 22.5 miles from Hiram to Rock Mart, then turned around and came back.
The first half of the ride took just about an hour for me to do.
The second half was another story altogether!
It took closer to an 1hr 45 min… My legs were working the whole way, but just barely!
We ate a little lunch then tacked on 10 extra miles and called it a day.
By the way, 55 miles is my longest ride to date.
