I decided to go riding today. The weather was cloudy, but ridable. I wore full gear, and I was able to use my shoe covers for the first time. They worked well. I did steady tempo today. My body felt good, no ailments except a little soreness in the legs from the previous strength training. When I got to the top of the Banducci climb I had to decide whether to continue down into the valley, or turn around. The weather looked ridable, cloudy but no rain. The wind prevailed form the north west. I ended u having a nice tailwind on the way back. Concentration was in and out. Not so good as in the few weeks in the past, but I was able to coach myself through the ride, and I got it done. Balance was good. The position on the bike was a little different than the mountain bike, so it took a few minutes to adjust. All the gadgets worked well. The walkman wasn't charged, so I had to go without it today. Bike is also working well.
