I do my standard 6.5 miles along the greenway that goes by the hospital so that I can look at the ducks in the Roanoke river, watch the trains go by, and wish for the young days when I would go 20 or 30 miles. (I turned 80 last month - no serious health problems so far, but slowing down some)

60k after work. Made it in just before the sunset. I was happy with that.

A bit over 60 kilometers (or 38 miles) commute. Turned to be a very (against-) windy and thus a hard day...

138k. Managed to get it in JUST before the rain started. But man, it was cold and cloudy. Not a very pleasant ride.

40 miles on a midnight ride, to the Delaware River and back. Had the roads and the D&L trail all to myself, except one guy who was sleeping on the path under the bridge rolling into Easton. He was quite startled when my headlight woke him up in his sleeping bag!

It will be a while before I can go on my usual ride on the greenway that goes by the hospital (this photo was taken from a top floor).
The Roanoke River (shown with the bridge below, which is part of the greenway) overflowed and water almost went into the hospital. This flood was almost as bad an the infamous Flood of '85, which I vividly remember.

I hope that is the last hurricane this year, but who can say? The weather this year has been awful. I had to buy a new furnace and put on a new roof.

About six, I'm guessing. On the Street Strider, which I've named 'Exhaust.'
