Last week was too crummy to ride at all, and now we have 70's forecast for the next week.

Windy, windy, windy - about 15mph tailwind going out and 20mph headwind coming home. It's been the windiest Fall and Winter I can remember, and we're now in an "Exceptional Drought" to boot.

Headwind was right into my face on this hill coming home, and didn't get masked by the hill at all! Heart rate went to 169 and stayed there all the way up. At least I have a new baseline to work with.

Rode the 1985 Raleigh Team USA which is a really pleasant bike.
