Back again with 50

Joyce invited Tricia and I out to ride central Contra Costa for a 50 miler, so we did. It was my first actual ride since the Knoxville Double. I'd been doing my daily bike commute, but riding on the weekend, or other than really really slowly was not happening.

Today was not fast, though I did make an effort on a few climbs. Mostly it was a relief just to like being on the bike.

Our ride took us past the moving, controversial crosses monument on the Lafayette,  which I am moved by every time I see it.
