Total mileage for 2017: 184.9
This morning I went out at 8 a.m. and rode a round trip to Marsh Park, covering the 10 miles in 1:19. The brilliant blue skies were a decided blessing. However, the 22° (16° wind-chill) temperature at the start, which heated up to 29° (18° wind-chill) by the time I finished made it abundantly clear that our recent flirtation with springlike weather here in Michigan is over. (To say nothing of the temperatures that Michelle and I enjoyed during our recent few days in Florida!)
Riding was a considerable effort, and I could tell it was affecting my time. I soon realized that, with the schedule interruption that our trip south provided, it has been several weeks since I aired up my tires, and that was definitely affecting the ride. So, a session with the pump becomes a MUST on my To-Do list before tomorrow's ride!
