The GI wasn't agreeing in the morning after breakfast. My departure was delayed by about 30 to 40 minutes. At least the weather warmed up a bit. The wind was from the North and the temperature around low 50's. I wore the standard kit, knees, arms, cap, base layer. I was sufficiently warm. The legs were slightly heavy to start, but got better as the ride progressed. I made it to the summit in good average time. The descent was fun. There was some traffic mitigation, so I had to let them by. After reaching the base, I checked the GoPro battery. It was at about 67%. The return trip felt good. The air was dense and cool. Just the way I like it. The landmarks ticked over quite fast. I think my legs felt better as the ride progressed. I was able to put the power down and keep it there. Mostly doing moderate to high tempo. The music helped a bit. I had it on low volume so that I could concentrate on breathing. Concentration was good. Minimal lapses and the morale felt good. Balance and form was good. Nutrition was good. I had most of my Gatorade. Ailments, minimal. Maybe some hand soreness. Gear worked perfect. Other notes, no cyclists or trains today.
