Rockland to Hanvover back

Wow! What a fun, great ride.
Wx was warm, cloudy with drizzle.

Stats: Ave speed 9 MPH (slow but the slipery trails demanded lower speeds) Distance Over 7 miles. Well in the damn 7th mile zone, we lost the bike computer.

Pete rode into this huge deep puddle. I mean this was three feet deep. When I heard his insane laugher, i picked a different path. Meanwhile. Splash!
After Pete walked off his injuries, we relized the bike computer was missing.

Pete did spend some time looking for it, but could not find it. We think some turtles made off with it.

I had a small wipe out. This bent my hanger for the rear derailer. Any more bend and the derailer would have ended up into the wheel.

Great idea Pete! To finish the ride via the pavement. Bike is in the shop at Dave's Rockland Cycle Shop in Rockland MA. It's in great hands.
