Ride Description:                                                            
Really awesome weather and ride and I cannot believe there are not more out there enjoying this type of fall weather before the temperatures really start to dip. Oh well....not my problem as I enjoyed a 4+ hour solo ride on my usual route. I met my goals for today, which was keeping my intensity around 0.7 IF, 4 hours pedaling and close to 200 TSS.

The headwinds on the ride up were not too bad and on the way back just made it all seem sweeter even though I still kept my cadence fairly steady. The most unfortunate part of the day was seeing one of the few cyclist out today limping on the side of the road, but before I got up to them three dogs came out chasing hard with one showing teeth. I assumed that maybe the dogs made her crash. Bad news was one of the dogs bit her and spoiled her fine day on the bike. I imagine that will send her to urgent care and maybe shots.
