Michigander Reflections

This was easily the most gorgeous route we've ever done. Northern Michigan is incredibly beautiful.

I didn't train as much as I needed to, especially on the hills. Next year, I will be seeking out more rolling terrain in preparation for the ride. This was definitely a harder ride for me than previous years, partly because of my lack of training, but also because of my stupid body's inability to stay healthy.

We seemed to have a good mix of people. Those who chose to skip out were missed, but the new additions fit in well.

304 miles are now behind me. It was a good ride, and I'm already looking forward to next year (if I don't have a job).
