Another relatively short ride today-- about 20 mile, but nice scenery alongside the Charles River, and I managed not to plow through a flock of sheep-- I mean, French tourists taking up the entire path.
For those of you new to these posts, I am training to ride the Pan ...

The picture is of a new book by my friend Cliff Stoltze of Stoltze Design. He obviously does something he likes.
