Florida: Mixed road types, first 100-mile ride

I took my new 150 Navi clone out the other day and rode from Gainesville to Ocala and back via Williston and Archer. It's not a freeway bike, so I hit everything from Wacahoota Road (1/3 potholes, 1/3 raised pavement from pothole repairs, 1/3 loose gravel because REASONS) to two different fairly straight US highways to city streets to a couple of very slightly twisty county roads. Total mileage, just over 100.

The bike's top speed is supposedly 55mph. I got it to 57 on a long flat straight stretch, but mostly took it easy in the 45-47mph range. Fun ride, but since I'm new at this I woke up the next morning with soreness in muscles I didn't even know I had.
