First Sunny Day In Two Weeks
It was the first rideable day in two weeks. We spent the bulk of the week dealing with an ice storm that shut the city down. But today it was sunny, lows in the 40s but highs in the 60s. YES! We had a club ride scheduled at 1:30 which was perfect for taking advantage of those highs. So, I got to ride in shorts and a short sleeve jersey, and feel the sun beating down on me. I was even HOT during the first few climbs as I struggled to warm up. It was a tough ride given we had 2 weeks off the bike and it starts out with a steep climb (helotes to toutant beuraguard to bourne to helotes), but it just felt so good to be out on a bike and after ~10 miles I was in a groove. Got 37 miles in for the day, FINALLY!
