168

That's 168KM of bike riding today! We did our usual route to the South
West corner toward SheShan where PGA golf tournament was held in the
past. When we got close, we decided to take a detour more south to
see what was there. Wow... We were in a different century.
Villages, waterways, fresh air, no traffic, and an experimental
village that grows its own organic food for sustainability! The
village was called MaoKou (泖口). 200 families. What a peaceful
place.

My thighs could power much one the way back. Needed a Gel every 20K
or so on the last 50. Now my butt and my knees are sore.

We had vegetarian hot pot tonight for dinner. Then walked home.
Almost all the way, took subway from one stop away. The walk was
about 35minutes. My feet are toasted now too.

Will post map of the ride later this week.
