Oh What a Beautiful Feeling

We're back on our bikes and Oh how good that feels!  We returned the rental car to the Wilmington, NC airport this morning and started today's ride from the airport.  The day was just wonderful, it started out frosty but sunny and by the time we were riding it had warmed up.  We had a tailwind in the morning but our direction changed by afternoon and thus a head wind for our afternoon ride.  We had lots of variety today with coastal riding, inland roads, great shoulders and less than ideal roads, new ecosystem with sandy soils and lots of pine trees and a ferry ride with dophins connecting coastal towns.  Chris called this a dolphin/endorphin ride.  It was a great day of riding and feels awesome to be back in the saddle.
