I've been sick, but rested Friday, so set out for a slow, short ride. Ended up with a just under 15 mile ride at a pace not much less than my average.
It was about 90% humid, but not so hot, about 75. Rode up Strawberry Hill to start, when a fast rider passed us, said hi, and I responded," yea, we're old, slow, and tired..." By the time we got to the flatter part of the ride, I was moving along as more usual, and then we decided to go up the other bigger hill in town. Took the long way back, and except for going slower than usual up the hills, I survived.
Was hoping to do a longer ride today, as I have a special 4 course dinner/wine pairing tonight that I bid on at a charity auction. Been looking forward to this all summer, but I need to get the metabolism going. It's been raining, still, though just very wet outside now. More storms on the radar.
