Lots of great rides here!

I started riding bikes in late 2018, then started getting serious about it in Spring 2019. I participated in the 2019 "Ben to the Shore", the former Tour de Shore charity ride, 65 miles from Philly to Atlantic City. I had a great time but was slow, total time in excess of 5.5 hours. Did a lot of training for the 2020 "Ben" but that was cancelled as were most rides.

So my favorite ride this year 2021 was the 2021 Ben to the Shore, I did this 65 mile ride in 3 hours 33 minutes. This includes one stop of 2 minutes to refill bottles. I'm not ashamed to say I'm proud of myself, I'm age 63. I live in the Pocono Mtns, I do climbs all the time, pull some fairly decent hills but the all out grind of south jersey was quite a bit of effort.
