Today was an unseasonable (not complaining!) 60F. Gusty winds initially, but they were to my back on the way home. Original goal was to go to Madonnaville, but then I saw Chaflin Bridge on the map, and I decided to go there instead.
Came home and Google MyMaps mapped the mileage. Roughly 61.1 miles. I was gone for approx 3 1/2 hours. Dad was worried about me and came out in the car looking for me. I passed him on the last five miles.
I felt great. This was a new route for me; I went farther south than I have pedaled before, and my mood has picked up.
Near Harrisonville, I saw a total of 11 bald eagles. Three were perched in a tree ~100 yds away, six more were perched in another tree a little farther away, and 2 were soaring. Did not see any nests near them, though.
I liked this route, will definitely go again, next time perhaps when there will be more daylight.
