Did 35.8 miles with 2,100 ft. of climbing today. I am exhausted. We did the ride we were going to do yesterday, and it was a good thing we didn't, because the lunch stop place was closed yesterday. The day was supposed to be 50-52 degrees. I think it may have been that somewhere, but not where we were riding! I got warmed up before lunch, as that's where most of the big climbs were, but after lunch, even though it was 1:45 when we left Harvard center, the sun is so low and behind the trees, I was freezing. After a bit of climbing, I stopped to put my glove liners back on. Felt ok when I got home, but am drinking tea now, have that slightly chilled feeling, even thought he thermometer outside says 50.
Glad I did not do the club ride. I would have been miserable. Had a great veggie sandwich at the Harvard General Store. While we were there, we saw a couple that came on that charity ride we led for our synagogue in September. They were part of the obnoxious group that went ahead of DH and said they could do what they wanted to do, so I was not in the mood to be nice. I've known the woman for years, from the health club and she is very strange, always whining. So, I made myself feel better by thinking that she may be a faster rider than me, but she looks like crap, even though she must be 5-10 years younger!
Have 17 miles to go to make 2,700 miles. Don't know if that will happen. The weather might be OK tomorrow, but I kind of wanted to do something different and I need to get some food in this house!
