I had breakfast and took my early morning nap. I managed to get up in time for a ride without too much delay. The weather is a bit warmer. I wasn’t sure what to wear, so I wore the standard kit. I was a bit on the hot side, but did not take layers off. I felt average to start. The wind was from the North East, so the opposite of what I like. I brought dad’s Oximeter to take readings along the ride. I made it to the top of OTR in good average time. I took a reading, the O2 level was 95+. The pulse was high, of course. The Banducci Wall had some traffic mitigation, so I was on 6 O’clock alert. After reaching the Arosa climb, I was a bit more relaxed. The time went quick. I was going by landmarks. Once I reached the summit of Aorsa, I took another O2 reading. The meter didn’t pick up my pulse because it was too high (or something). So, no reading at that point. From there, I made my way around the backside. I reached 40 MPH on the descent. After reaching the summit of Banducci, I pulled over to recover, hydrate and take another O2 reading. The O2 level was below 95. Around 92 + or -. After recuperating, and letting traffic by, I headed down the mountain. I was a slow descent as I was going into a headwind at this point. I made my way down the mountain and back to OTR for the return descent. I stopped to take an O2 reading. The O2 level was normal. From there it was mostly fun and games. I shut it down at the top of Weston. I think I took another O2 reading when I got home. It appeared normal (95+).

Concentration was good. A bit impatient to start. Balance and form felt good. Ailments were minimal. I was a bit lacking in energy today, not sure why. My weight is down to 130 lbs, so something might be going on there. Nutrition was good. I was a bit on the hungry side, though. Perhaps explaining why I was lacking in energy. Gear worked flawlessly. Other notes, no cyclists today.
