I’m just going to let some pictures tell the story of yesterday’s ride. These photographs were taken during a leisurely paced ride down Main Street in Greenville, South Carolina. If you follow along on Instagram the hashtag #rideTHATgreenville, you can see these and other images of our town. While you are at it, why not use the hashtag yourself to share your favorite scenes.

The one thing I will add is that I made a mistake and turned down a wrong way trying to create a loop back home. I ended up on a large highway that I actually had never ridden before (on a bike or in a car). What was supposed to be a simple 10 mile ride turned out to be close to 20 miles.
It is one of the fun things about cycling. So often wrong turns become adventures.
