I thought this was January, doesn't that mean "winter" in this hemisphere? Well anyway, the sun is shining and the temps are in the upper 60's at this moment.
Doug, Nathan and I rode around the Old Thompson Mill Loop this morning and when we completed the rolling and almost 30 mile loop, our average speed was a respectable 19 MPH.
Going up the climb on Mt Moriah Road, Nathan pointed out where their new house will be built. The bulldozers were clearing the land when we went by. Directly across the street is the still active Mt Moriah church which was established in the early 1780's and has a graveyard out back with markers more than 220 years old.
