Gary's Biking Blog     Ride Stats Distance: 57.51 miles Max Speed: 34.48 mph Time: 04:02:06 Avg Speed: 14.25 mph Bike: Easy Racers Gold Rush Replica LWB Bent Club: 'BentRider Recumbent Club Weather Conditions: Cool low 60s to start with cloudy skies and light winds. Warming to near 80 later with clearing skies and winds out of the SSE at 10 mph. Ride Description: Hawks and Hills Ride. I rode out to Phil's at about 7am and we headed to Millersport for breakfast. We spotted a red tailed hawk on a fence taking off right next to us and later a cooper's hawk. We seemed to come upon another red tailed every 10 miles or so jumping off a wire above and flying with us then off into a field. We rode south out of Millersport and headed past Carroll Eastern to explore a new route back west. We found Beatty which pretty much just runs up and down hills through cornfields and ends at 188. There we turned south and rode through some traffic to the Columbus Southern Power offices on Coonpath. Then west to Old Millersport and a long downhill before turning west again. We rolled just south of Baltimore and worked our way over to Basil Western for our typical finish. I forgot to turn on MyTracks today so here is the link to Phil's which is most of this rides info: http://goo.gl/maps/c9vU5 Navigate by: blog entry | ride entry | any entry << Prev Blog  Monday, August 13, 2012  Next Blog >>  Hawks and Hills Ride Hawks and Hills Ride.
