My everything was sore when i got back because I’m out of shape but it was worth it. Had some oatmeal after setting everything up and enjoyed myself.
I envy you. I had some things happen, both positive and negative, resulting in me not getting out nearly as much as I’d love to (and need to).
Trying out some new gear, taking some pictures, recording bird audio, baking bread in a fire, simply riding or whatever else justifies being out there… every little trip just adds so much.
Kudos on the 20 mile trip, keep going, you’ll be back in shape in no time. Hope you like your new tent as well.
