Today's weather was great for riding. A bit on the warm side, but cool winds from the South East. Given that the wind was not in my favor today, I decided to exclude the SS loop. I wore the standard kit + arm warmers + 1 base layer. I felt good going out the door. No sore legs, just needed warming up. The direction of the wind skewed the effort. I made it to the end of OTR in average time. The Banducci wall was fun to climb, as I had the wind on my back. More of the same on the remainder. I was able to hold high tempo over the last quarter mile, pushing it over the top. The downhill was fun, but I was watching my speed. I was able to fly through the rollers. After making it to Pelliser and doing the right hander, I slowed down, and kept a moderate tempo. No heroics. This was more of the same to the last climb. I upped the tempo just a bit on the last climb, and a modest dig over the top. From there it was smooth sailing onto Route 202 and OTR. Mariposa was fun. I was able to accelerate to about 19MPH over the top. From there, I was able to cruise home. Concentration was good. Few lapses, minimal gremlins. Ailments consisted of right hand numbness. Some quad soreness when I was pushing it. Balance and form felt good. Gear is working well, no issues. Other notes, I saw no other cyclists today.
