Weekend of Oct 23-24 rides

[Crankin]

Our ride Saturday was interrupted by a phone call from the guy buying DH's mountain bike, so we had to turn around and head home, as he was coming to pick it up.
So, it ended up being 15 miles, in cool, windy, but sunny conditions.
Yesterday, I had a lot of school work, so by the time I was ready to ride, it was drizzling, raw, and not entirely nice for riding. I did my 10 minute cardio blast, core work, and then went for a 2 mile walk around town, where I was not dressed warm enough.
Rode 10 miles at 5:30 AM this morning, though. It was about 10 degrees warmer than it has been, but it was "wet" out; not really raining, but sort of fog coming down. I had to take my glasses off on the way back, because I couldn't see at all.

I had a great weekend of riding.

I did the 56 mile rout of the Santa Fe Century on Saturday with a friend. I did a lot of pulling because she seemed tired. She also flatted with 10 miles to go but luckily there was a nice fella to change the tube.

Sunday I did the Rush 55 of the Horsefarm Hundred with my same gal friend and another guy friend. There is a long bumpy road that seems to go on forever at about mile 40 and by the end I was pretty tired and a little sore.

Great riding though, with friends and fantastic weather.

Windy Sat, I did my shorter commute route, 28 miles rt. Yesterday was perfect for riding, overcast and still. I love that. 21 easy miles. My mantra this weekend was "don't do anything stupid".
