I got out for a 50 mile ride today. This will be my last training ride for my metric century next Sunday. I got rained on for 20 of the 50 miles but it was actually a good ride. One objective today was to resolve my saddle/shorts issue. I used the saddle from my race bike, stood on the pedals frequently, stopped every 10-12 miles, and slathered on chamois Buttr at the pee breaks and it worked out pretty well.

Between the strong winds I fought the last several weeks and the rain today I feel like there's little else the ride next week can throw at me.
