Birthday ride -- 64 miles at about 16 mph. I'm only 63, but I figure the extra mile is the cycling equivalent of "and a pinch to grow an inch" (do they still say that?). Went out to dinner with my...

40 miles on the local MUP (W&OD Trail). Cool/cold, depending on what you're used to (43F/6C), with a headwind that turned into a nice tailwind when I got to the turnaround point.
