It's warmer today than the previous ride. I wore 1 base layer which I probably didn't need, but wasn't uncomfortable either. I had good legs from the start. I required little time to warm up. I made it to the end of OTR in under 20 minutes. The wind was a bit unusual. It was a cross-wind till the top of the first mile climb. And then reversed direction about 3 miles into the outbound. The return trip had a nice tailwind and I was able to hold good tempo most of the way. So, concentration was fairly good for the first half of the ride, but went sour on a few occasions. I don't know how to explain it, but it took me a while to snap out of it a few times. I had to coach myself back into focus, or near focus. Ailments were none for the most part. Balance was good, probably the greater off the attributes today. Gear is working well, no mystery noises. Other notes, there were little bugs near some of the orchards flying around and catching my arms and upper body. The same ones from the SS ride a while back. I saw a glider on the way to Willow Springs. I took some photos of the wind-mills with my Galaxy S5. I think I got a panorama in there.
