This morning's ride sure woke me up! It is supposed to get increasingly windier throughout the day, so I decided I'd rather deal with the cold than with the wind, and I went riding at 8:20, when I got home from dropping Michelle off at school. The 33° conditions under gray skies certainly made me feel the approach of winter—but (1) it had heated up to a toasty 38° by the time I finished, and (2) I know that much colder rides await me in coming months. Again, though, I was very grateful for my gloves, as well as my St. Olaf hoodie. I chose once again today to limit myself to a single round trip to Marsh Park, completing this 10.2-mile ride in a slow time of 1:11.
