With my new clipless pedals to help me out I took off this morning determined to squeeze out 50 miles today. I actually did 51 for good measure.

I absolutely could not have done it without the clipless pedals. Being able to pull as well as push made all the difference in the world. The last couple miles... which were up hill, were a little tough because I was getting tired, but it really wasn't that hard.

I'm glad I have it behind me and know I can do it. Hard to think about a 100 mile ride if you can't do 50, so now I know.
