century plans

I’ve got a busy schedule over the next two-and-change months. In addtion to work and cycling, the following tasks are on tap:

• Back-to-school for Georgetown University students (August 27).
• Bachelor outing for Sam (Labor Day weekend).
• Start of new semester of grad school courses (second week of September).
• Trip to England for sprite’s cousin’s wedding (third and fourth week of September).
• Sam and Alexis’ wedding (Columbus Day weekend).

Quite the time crunch. Thus, I’ve decided that the Civil War Century is the best 100-mile option for this year. It’s on September 10, and the route takes in three Civil War battlefields (Antietam, Gettysburg and South Mountain). The PPTC Century falls during our UK trip, which is a bummer, but not the end of the world.

Any way you look at it, though: it’s a century!
