I rode 30 miles in the heat and wind. For Seattle, 84 degrees is hot (ok, for me it is hot!) and the wind ranged from side wind to headwind.

The great part was that I tested out a new saddle. I always liked my old saddle but it was becoming just "ok" and there was discomfort. I'd shift around in longer rides. This new saddle was incredible! I don't think it's adjusted quite right but I rode faster, I had more energy (I think because there wasn't that constant pressure/semi-pain), and the bike handled better. It might be a fluke but I could actually balance a tiny bit without using my hands and I could never do that before.

Of course now my legs hurt. It's always something but legs hurting is good.
