Ride Description:

The data may not speak of great performance, but there are some little things that I felt today that indicates some improvement. I am also starting to get some consistency on my weekday intervals at home. Just some little increases here and there and let this body adapt at the rate it can handle.  I have noticed now that I am in my later 50's that my recovery time is longer. 

Enjoyable ride either way. Great weather even if there was a bit of headwind at times on the way back.
