Actually went slightly beyond Middleburg to Bike Route #1.

The rest of the "downtime" came from stop signs and several stops behind a school bus letting off children.

Legs felt to be on verge of cramping after ride. Hope I haven't ruined my legs for this weekend mtn ride.


The weather conditions were great! Not a cloud in the sky. Not too warm, not too cool. Not humid. When I turned around @ Middleburg. I saw a line of clouds well to the south-southwest - so far to the south that the sun was still shining in Youngsville when I got back there, and the clouds seemed to still be well to the south. It was a very pretty day up around Middleburg, riding back south, down into several valley / creek crossings.
