Working 5 days a week (and sometimes six), you learn to anticipate and appreciate your weekends. This past Saturday dawned cloudy and cool in these parts, and my long awaited Saturday morning training ride / sufferfest looked like it might get rained on. A bunch of my Anchor House Ride http://www.anchorhouseride.org brethren and I gathered at Timberlane Middle School parking lot and proceeded to mount up despite the chill in the air. As we rode along, the sun poked its way through the clouds and the day turned hot and summery. Click here to view the Garmin Connect file of our ride. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/36769918
All in all it was a great ride with very pleasant companions!
Upon arrival home, the wife and I packed our beach gear and headed for Island Beach State Park. We drove past the guarded bathing beaches and parked at one of the beach buggy entrance points further south. Although a gusty south wind was blowing, the sun was shining and the beach was nearly deserted. A relaxing couple of hours were followed by some quality time on the backyard deck relaxing over a light dinner and an adult beverage or two.
As I said in the title, a perfect Saturday
