hi. over the last few seasons i kinda realized i like being on the road more than the trail. that's not to say i don't ride trail anymore, because i do. but i love a really long distance pavement ride. focus, breathing, not crashing... all that. anyway, i live in the district of rock island. i've been training to do ragbrai and i ride regularly from my place because it's right by the bike path. if anyone ever wants to ride from rock town to hampton, port byron, and beyond just email me. there's a nice parking lot by my building and everything. jeffreyloder@gmail.com.
