March 14 rides - spring hath come?
Woo hoo!
today was my first real long ride - and possibly my 2nd ride at all this year? Yes, I think so.
In the morning, I took out a workmate for a test MTB ride. About an hour, plus almost half an hour there, and then back to my favorite BS to return the test bike and discuss what she might need (if she decides to get one).
But after the attempt of getting a new person hooked, I was in need of another fix:
By 2 pm it had turned into an almost balmy pre-spring day, as announced, about 15°C, and I just exchanged shoes and took the road bike for its ride. 2.5 hrs or so for a flat 65K. I worked at it hard, muscles sometimes complaining - boy did I lose fitness, but what can a girl do. Last September I managed this loop 3x in a row.
