Total mileage for 2017: 267.9
I had originally planned on riding this morning, but in the end I decided to first watch Michigan's Big Ten basketball tournament game at noon (which they won, in overtime), and then ride. I allowed myself to settle for another single round trip to Marsh Park today, riding in a stiff, cold wind (19 mph out of the west, which brought the balmy 29° temperature down to a wind-chill of 16°). The miles are adding up, but all too slowly ... I will be glad when spring arrives for good, allowing me to build up my mileage and my stamina. Today I rode the 10 miles in 1:18 (like yesterday).
Dear Allen, It was great to see you this morning at school and I am so impressed and grateful that you chose to ride today. I was out with the kids around 2 pm and felt that wind chill. Could not image riding into or even with such a wind. Keep it up and never surrender, that is my slogan. rob
