Actually wanted to do much more, planned to do everything on Stinky and then head over to the Ridge, and then Cochran Mill but I quickly dialed that back although I was having a good time and didn't feel bad I just wasn't quite feeling up to an all day ride. So I made do with basically all the trails near PTC on the south side, plus a bit of gravel. I want to note that this is the 15th anniversary of my first commute to work by bicycle, way back in 2006. Rain was expected but temperatures were in the upper fifties that morning. I encountered rain before I even left town. I put on some rain gear and will never forget the intense fear I felt about heading off in to the dark morning out of the town limits and wondering if I would make it to work on time. I also wasn't really in shape for doing 19 miles one way each day, Rochelle to Cordele, but I decided to try it anyway. Too many nice days were spent driving my truck to and from work and I had had enough and decided to do something about it. I sprained my ankle at first break that day, bad enough that it was a little painful to walk but I was still able to stand and grade lumber thankfully. I rode home with one of the most incredible tailwinds I have ever had even to this day, from the WSW. It reached almost 80 degrees that day. I will never forget the wonderful feeling of freedom as I descended the gradual hill into town on Cemetery road, at 35mph. Also of note, I just spent more on my new rear hub, a blue Industry Nine Hydra, than I did on that entire bike I did my first commute on, a used Bianchi Giro.
