We slept in - it was my birthday and I wanted to sleep in more than anything in this world. By the time we got out on our bikes, it was close to noon![]()
We ended up just riding on a bike trail; DH was unfamiliar with one of the local trails near work and I had to go there to pick up my car anyway. It started out nice and cool and pleasant until we discovered wind. This was a semi-headwind that appeared to go against us no matter what direction we turned. My legs didn't hurt at all but the rest of my body sure did! We ended up doing 36 miles and really felt it at the end.
We then went home, got ready, and went to DH's parents house for a BBQ. The great thing was we were late and it was expected. I rush so much every other day of my life, it seems like, it was perfect when I said "I know, I have to hurry" when getting ready and DH said to take my time.
What I don't get is how wind so heinous can be a semi-headwind no matter what direction we go. And how this wind, that was beyond obnoxious on our bikes, didn't appear to exist when we were standing still after our ride. It makes no sense!
