My 1st Metric Bike Ride

Ate a big healthy lunch after my metric bike ride (67.4 m at 13 mph). Woke up 5:15 am to start at 6:30 am. My touring bike is heavy so I was passed by at least 200 road bikes. Switched from century ride of 103.5 (5300ft gain) to metric ride of 67.4 m (3100 ft gain) after the persuasion of two senior citizens, and made a few new friends including one wearing the Old Fart shirt! Had a fun ride! — in Reston, Virginia.
