53.41 miles in 4h 9m 30s, 12.84mph. Along the way, I...
A) skinned my knee on the BU bridge
B) completed a personal record for the Minuteman bike path (8.54 miles in 33m30s, or 15.2mph)
C) helped Felice Pomeranz of Sudbury--a concert and jazz harpist who's Felice Pomeranz Jazz Quartet is playing tonight at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum--change a flat front tire on her bike (though inflating it properly was a bit beyond either of us)
D) drank a milkshake at the Dairy Joy on Rte 117 (getting to be a habit)
E) Now completed 507 miles of training (including work commutes) and feeling like I just might be ready for the ride by the end of the month. Knock on wood!

Snacking seems to be the recurring theme for this team. All routes must pass by (or through) suitable eating establishments.
Nancy and my bike snacking is generally limited to protein bars and Shot Blocks. So I'm not sure we can keep up with the rest of you in the snacking event.
I am so depressed on so many levels. I haven't ridden my bike in about 6 weeks and I haven't made a pit stop at Dairy Joy - NOT EVEN ONCE! ARRGGHHH!
