37.8 miles
Rode 37.8 miles this morning. I've gotten into gravel riding and this was the farthest I've gone yet. I'll try to post a link to the MapMyRide app. I'm going to try to do this once a week with other rides thrown in. Not bad for a 43 year old 260lb fat guy!!

It is an overflow for a pond or small body of water. We have tons of them in Iowa.
Gravel bike is my next purchase. Waiting on the carbon Fuji Jari to hit the U.S. in December.

Upped the game a little yesterday and logged in around 41.5 miles. Adding just another 5 miles or so was a game changer. Wow. The last few miles were tough. That coupled with a strong headwind for the first half of the ride wiped me out.
