A bloody mary..... that and a good nap & maybe today would go a LOT better. Take a few days off riding in the mountains and people expect you to work when you return. It just ain't right.
Had the Paulaner in Helen, GA home of the Troll Tavern. Usually don't but this time kept the commemorative beer mug. Added a few miles to our northern excursion to turn a 420 mile day into a 500 mile day for 17 of us. The other 40 riders or so went the short way and.......... we beat them to Helen for brewskis by almost half an hour even though our route was 80+ miles further. Go figure. (I lead our group.)

My mind is on the Wayayh Road in hilly western NC, wishing that whoever scattered the 10 tons of gravel on that road had a hot poker shoved in a "special" place. Still a great ride, but that sliding around corners sorta sucked.
Is it Friday yet?
