Yesterday was a glorious day. Just look at these flowers blooming outside the Embassy of Turonistan. So some bicycling was in order.
The W&OD Trail was in wonderful condition after the brutal winter we suffered. Just look at all of those beautiful buttercups!
I don't know what these wildflowers are called, but there were millions of them lining the trail.
Pretty far from home now, but not quite as far as I wanted to go.
That's it, Milepost 31. From my house to the trail is 4.5 miles, then thirty-one miles on the trail is just over 35 miles, making a round-trip of 70 miles.Pedaled for over 7 hours. I was exhausted when I got home. Had a couple of cold beers and a quick bowl of spaghetti and fell into bed at 9 PM.

I believe those flowers are lilacs, and what a pretty day for a bike ride! Thanks for sharing the photos. That must have been quite a tonic.

...or maybe standing phlox. I love those!
Dang, just reading about it got me tired (and also made me feel guilty enough to dust off the bike and check the tires in anticipation of a somewhat shorter ride than yours tomorrow).
