Headed northeast on a solo ride, beautiful day of sun and warmth while passing fields busy with activity. Went through Granville and then west and back east to..... ....Utica where, following the example set by Kenda Janet, Marty and Cindy, decided it is hard to beat a PB&J sandwich for an energy boost. I headed out via Blacksnake but prior to reaching Martinsburg Road, made a right on to Stout Road. Seldom on this one but it is a good option going south rather than Martinsburg. Good climb on there too. Had to pay attention to the roads as there were..... ....hundreds of walnuts avoided over the 63 mile route. Actually, the above is from my driveway so I need to get busy clearing them. Saturday ride option is coming although it's a drive to get there.

Rode to Mansfield today for my sisters wedding and got two flats...both coming from hitting walnuts! First time hitting a walnut in 29 years of riding. I got to stop reading your blog.

The blog regrets to hear of the story and assumes some liability. Therefore, send me an invoice for the cost of the tubes and of course your labor is not cheap so throw in a healthy per hour rate. I will apply the amount against future subscription costs so you could be reading for free for decades.
