Beautiful day today.....
35 mile loop ride, not sure the elevation change (couldn't figure out mapping with Map My Ride), but there was a long up-hill slog, and had an asthma attack 1/2 way up. Ride also incuded 2 flats, fortunately flat #2 was 1 block from a bike shop - bought a new tired and tube.
Saddle time 3 hours, with rest stops more like 5 hrs. Average speed 11.4 mph, top speed 31 (WHEEEEEE) on a down hill run.
I am not liking hills very much, am not, am not, am not.
Must find flatter routes, truly flat and try again.
Either that or sell my road bike. But I hate riding inside, and would rather ride outside.
I think tomorrow my lungs will forgive me.
