Ride Description:                                                            

Not very many people out on the Comet today and most of those I saw were running. Most of the cyclist I saw were heavily dressed and moving slow. I was wearing my lighter winter gear and though I was quite miserable at the start it did not take long to feel like I was starting to get too hot.

The main reason I commuted down to the Comet was due to feeling like I was at the brink of losing sanity if I had to do another inside ride. I needed a day in the elements even if the elements were less than favorable and even if I wasn't pushing the intensity. After a few minutes of pushing against the cold wind and warming up beneath the Pearl Izumi jersey I was very happy to be outside on the bike.
