Commute

Longer this time, doing a total of 26 with an eastward loop down to Indian Hills and then home. I had to stop by OYLC and Black Springs and told Skiles the massive tailwind was making me feel macho going down River Rd in a big gear. 'course, once on top of the bluff and through the park fighting through the headwind made me feel like crap. I think I even had an Afib episode precipitated by the combo of difficulty and the chill generated by the wind. It went away after 10min or so. Good.  I saw the wife driving in Seneca Pk. She later  regaled us with a story that she had briefly fallen asleep not a minute or 2 before. Fate was such that I was 2 minutes from being potentially run over by my spouse. Sketchy I think.

Today no rides there will be, as the Dauphin and I, along with 2 other freshmen, are off to Cedarville, OH for an indoor track meet. It'll be the Dauphin's first; he'll be running the mile and 800, I should say significantly faster than his old man.

I'm hoping to join the boys tomorrow morning for a coffee ride. It seems the right thing to do with temps finally climbing back into the normal, i.e. not freakin' frozen all the time. Hope you're having the same change of pace.

Good to hear you're out and about. I am SO ready to crawl out of hibernation mode.
