First try at 300 km ride

I was up early today to attempt a ride to Vermont and back.  I left the house in the dark at 5:07 and just finished the first 30 miles at about a 14mph pace.   I'm taking a half hour at the nice Harvest grill in Sterling to have breakfast, adjust my clothing now that its warmed up, and get the cue sheet set for the 60 mile leg to Brattleboro.   Lots of climbing ahead.   My return route follows the last two legs of the NER 600 k.    So far these have been familiar roads, but after a few more bites of food I'll be heading into unknown territory, what fun!
