Day 2 of my non-NC weekend. Did a little over 90 miles, around 5,000 feet climbing. As I was riding around trying to get enough miles, came upon a couple of 18% grades out in the country!
Ended up getting pretty hot for the last half of the ride (90degrees/over 100 heat index). Some saddle soreness, not as bad as the Specialized but not pleasant. The saddle on the bike I rode today is an Arione, but a little different, and the shorts I don't think I like as much (new S5Mille).
For the two days, did 171 miles, approx 12,500 feet climbing. A bit hotter than if I had been in the mountains, and certainly less entertaining. I had to work for these miles.
