 Parma Lasso
Yesterday after viewing my work commute from the Garmin site map, It looked like my commute had covered a significant area of the town. So I thought, having ridden my bike throughout the town over the years, and having participated in Parma Tours of sort in the past, and then too, not getting much in the way of miles lately...Why not make an event of todays work commute? So I "Lassoed" the town. that is to say I circumnavigated the perimeter of the second largest (or third largest) town in Monroe County. Nothing much by way of hills (parma is essentially level ground), but it meshes well with my routine in training for the Highlander coming up next month.

The ride was challenging with some variable winds, a bit of climbing, some wet roadway, overspray from passing trucks, and a little rain.
