Ride Description:

Nice day out on the usual out and back Saturday route. I saw Keith B. near my turn point but I never caught up with him. He must have been keeping a solid pace on the way back. Nice bit of sustained wind on the way back. Not a direct headwind, but took some energy to keep the TT bike in near straight line.

The Quarq Cinqo was dead at the start so I switched out the battery and noticed the old battery appeared corroded unlike anything I've seen in the past. There wasn't much that I could except get the ride started. At more than halfway into the route the power meter started working again.

My fitness is still in this slump so I doubt there is any reason to give the MAP test a try this week. I don't think I could give it my best at this point.
