Ride Description:

Welcome back to the chill and it seemed like a short summer to me. Here we go and now to make sure all the cold weather gear gets loaded into the bag. I started off with a Free-Flite summer kit, long sleeve light base layer, leg warmers and light vest. I only took off the vest and glove liners later in the ride and left the rest on for the remainder. 

The wind going up did not seem hard, but it was taking something out of me as it took much longer to get up to my turn point. Coming back was the payoff and it was nice to have that push from the tailwind.

I am just grateful to get out to spin for a few hours.
