Endurance Ride in the Sun, Drizzle and Downpours (MTB)

Training objective: easy 2-3 hour ride with the cadence at 80-90 and the heart rate between 120-125 bpm's

The threat of drizzle caused my riding partners to bail (you know who you are!), so I headed out on my own. Hard to keep the heart rate in the Endurance zone on the hills (you try finding a 2-3 hour route here that doesn't involve a hill or two!), but not too bad. Near impossible to see on the downhill sections in the pelting rain and flying sand/gravel, but you just go for it and hope for the best. :) A bit of a tough slog on the wet sand/gravel in places, but a nice ride nonetheless.
