The weather has cooled off. It was around 60 degrees when I departed. Winds from the South East. I wore arms, knees, head cap, thick base layer and some newspaper in the jersey. The legs were slightly heavy to start. I made it to the summit of OTR in good average time. There was a headwind on the way up Highline. I zipped around the Buffalo neighborhood and then back to Highline for the return. I decided to add the Banducci Summit. I had a nice tailwind on the way up. After reaching the summit, I pulled over to recover. I let traffic by and then headed back down the mountain. It was safe. There was minimal traffic mitigation. Descending off the Banducci Wall was mostly safe, I feathered the brakes to keep things under control. The descent off OTR was relaxing. I pushed over Mariposa and then to the top of Weston where I shut it down.

Concentration was good. I had stuff to think about. The morale was good. Balance and form was good. Ailments were minimal. Nutrition was good. I had a bowl of oatmeal and a few grapes for breakfast. I drank more than half my sport drink. Gear worked flawlessly. Other notes, no cyclists today.
