Starting to Build Mileage
 
I still remember the first year we did this ride and the 15 mile round-trip to the Glen Ellyn coffee shop seemed like a days good work. Now as we build our training mileage, as we get into 35, 40, 45 miles it is exciting and interesting, not terrifying.
With these longer rides, we can do some very interesting routes and on Sunday, we are going to take one of our favorite rides along St. Charles road.
