Riding on a sunny afternoon

I don't have to go into work until this evening, so I thought I'd stretch my wings, so to speak, and try a longer route.

Distance: 1.869 miles
Maximum Speed: 16.0 mph
Average Speed: 10.6 mph
Time: 10m, 36s

Went down Almaden to the lake, round the lake to Coleman, Coleman back to Almaden (going over a mild hill) then a half block loop at home. Nice warm day (78 degrees right now)

Good ride.
