Great weather today. Reminded me of riding along the beach. I had a headwind on the way out. so, it was a bit chilly. I wore 1 base layer. My legs felt good today, so I was able to do good tempo to the top of Banducci. I was battered by the wind, pretty much the whole way out. Keeping my concentration was key. I did a bit of a dig over Banducci and SS and a good dig over the last climb. I did good time today considering the wind conditions. I reached Boss Hogs in about 1:20. I was able to hold high tempo the entire return trip. The wind was a bit of a cross-wind, so going north (ie Pelisser) was more difficult than usual. I was holding it around 20mph but not much more. Going east proved to be a little bit more forgiving. Ailments... Pretty much none. I guess that makes today a special day for body aches. The air was nice and cool, so there was that sensation of more O2 in the air. The gear worked flawless today, but the Gopro stopped recording when I noticed at the end of the ride. Will have to see what the deal is with that. Probably forgot to reset the SD card? Like I mentioned, concentration was good, but the way out proved to be more challenging than the return trip. Leg Balance was good, I was able to keep my eye near the horizon and just let my legs tick over as symmetrical as I could. Other notes, I saw 4 deer in SS today. I got some photos and video footage.
