Day 2 in the bag. Day 1 was beeeeautiful weather. Felt the 66 miles. It's hilly here. (Duh)

Day 2 it's rained all day, but it's still pretty. 44 miles today. More hills. We're on the new York side of the lake and the hills are bigger, but I guess there's less of them? H and I have taken to just yelling PRETTY!! when a nice vista opens up.

a good chunk of today was spent on a fairly busy road with a 1 foot shoulder. Didn't love that part, but it wasn't too bad. My Max speed remains 39.6 mph. I really want to break 40 on one of these downhills but I chicken out right around 38/39 every time and start feathering the brakes.

Ill share a ton of pics when I'm home. Flickr changed their coding and I can't figure out how to get the direct link anymore on mobile...They're on Facebook though. Will accept friend requests if mutual friends are people here.
