I think it cooled off just a bit. The wind was cool-ish. The legs were a bit heavy to start. I was sufficiently warmed up by the time I reached the top of the descent. I cruised the downhill. Soft pedaling most of the way. I spared no time at the base and headed back. The legs felt more lively at this point. I had some things to think about, so the miles went quick. I was riding by two landmarks, the bottom of the loop and the top of the loop. The remainder was steady tempo, no less than moderate. Concentration was good. No lapses worth noting. Balance and form felt good. Ailments consisted of right hand numbness. I squashed my left thumb yesterday while using a ladder, so it was a bit sore, but nothing detracting. I had a strange pain near my collar bone, when breathing deep. It subsided by the time I reached the base. The right knee is doing better. Likely gone by tomorrow. Gear is working well. Other notes, no other cyclists today. There was a small crowd at the Loop Monument.
