Riding from home.

I need to be getting out and riding daily, just two or three times a week isn't cutting it. So tonight, I rode 17 miles through Erlanger, Ft. Mitchell, and Ft. Wright. I rode Turkeyfoot to Dixie to Kyles Lane, down Highland Avenue to Rt. 17. Rt. 17 to Richardson rd and back to Turkeyfoot.

Going down the hill on Highland Ave was much easier than I thought. I hit the brakes before the curve because I was a little unsure, this being my first time down the hill. Still, I hit a top speed of 39.9mph. Next time I'll try for 45.

Going up the hill on Richardson was really tough. I had to stop a few times and rest for a minute or two. Being 90 degrees out probably didn't help, although I need to be used to the heat since the Pan Ohio is at the very end of July.
