I don't know why I haven't been posting about my rides the last couple of days...guess I've been too distracted by the new bike!

I rode at lunch yesterday and while it was fairly warm (in the mid-40's) it was windy and my bike was squirelly (from a too short stem). Bad combination! I had to be very careful and really take my time.

Today I rode the same route at lunch again. It was slightly warmer (almost 50) and wind was from a different direction making it seem less difficult. Plus, with the new stem on my bike, the handling was perfect. I cranked out the 15 mile ride in about 50 minutes!! It felt wonderful and I didn't want to come back!!
