Yesterday I planned on an easy ride but I felt good and wound up going hard and finishing with a personal best... this morning I planned on a longer ride but a couple of miles out I wasn't feeling it and wound up with a short ride... my legs just didn't have it today, my avg. speed was 2 mph slower than yesterday, in a car 2 mph doesn't matter much either way, but on a bike it's a big difference... I was slower but my heart was working harder, so I guess I was tired plus it was hotter also... 80°F at sunrise.
Oh well, it doesn't matter what you have planned, once you're on the road it could go either way... I wound up with 17 miles in an hour and 12 minutes... and I was cooked.... Tonight I have to work so tomorrow's ride will have to start later and it'll be close to 90°F by the time I get out on the road... might be another slow ride.
ok Stay cool everyone.
Too hot out there. I'd be thrilled with 17 miles.
