No new bike. I've had it for 3 years; well the frame for 3 years, the components are about 5 years old, switched from the frame they sold me that was too big.
I was tired. Every ride ends with the 9-15% grade up my street, depending on which way you go up the loop, and then the 12% grade driveway.
And actually, the temperatures we are having now, 45-55 are my favorite riding temperatures. You usually don't have to take layers off if you dress right and it's not too hot. Above 75, I hate, and last summer was hotter than hell.
Like my son, the Marine, says, "pain is weakness leaving the body."
