Got out for a 35 mile route last night.
Nice steady NNW winds pushed me to Dover, but then I had to work against it all the way home.
Temps were just a bit on the cool side, so long sleeves and knee warmers kept me nice a toasty.
Overall, I felt pretty good.
Lately,
Not much riding going lately.
We made a couple of trips over to see Ben. What a great kid. At least when I'm around.
With Kathy's chemo there is always something going on.
I did get out and do some much needed lawn work this past weekend. And after that I got in a 35 mile ride to Dover and back. My legs felt heavy, but that is expected when you've been off the bike for 5 days or so.
Seemed like the days that would work to ride, were the days it was either raining, looking like rain, or 30+ mph winds.
I know, I'm a wimp...

I made my way down to the group ride at Dunn Brothers South.
We had 9 total for a windy ride.
The plan was to head SW into the ~25mph winds and then get a nice tailwind push all the way home.
The group chugged along nicely, but after about an hour or so I was starting to feel it. And with the strong winds there was no place to hide.
I dropped off the back a couple of times and the others slowed and came back for me (thanks), but by the turnaround point I was plenty tired.
So, I said "goodbye" and turned toward Stewartville on my own.
After some nice easy "slower" miles, I started to feel better and I made my way home without too much trouble.
Thanks to the nice tailwind.
